Default Tim Hortons card!

Yet another card for people to carry around. Appears that Tims doesn't like Dexit!

This is a great idea. Too bad it's only in Oakville right now.

Whats up with all the line ups at tim hortons? I don't drink coffee unless i was studying and needed to keep awake. But i always wondered why everytime i drive by a tim hortons no matter what city i am in there are always huge line ups at the drive thru? Everyone lining up for coffee for the roll up the rim to win or are they selling something else popular like drugs lol

Default i don't like cards... why not a keychain attachment also

I hate adding more cards to my wallet. They should also make use of the "easypay" technology that the gas stations are using and give out keychain attachments.

Cool, more cards. People like to collect these things. I hope they let us take them without filling them up with money

Well this solves 2 problems for tims, eliminating the annoying people who would use their debit card to pay for a 80c donut and having to pay a 30c charge (or whatever) to accept the payment.

I guess it isn't really secure as in if someone stole it they could spend all your money attached to it, but I suppose most people won't have >$100 on it anyway (unless they are really addicted!)

acually if you reproted it missing in time, all they have to do is issue you an new card number and cancel the old one, these things are very basic technology, you can make similar cards with the proper ATMEL code on any of those directv card programmers.

Actually...Timmy's doesn't take debit...at least all the ones I've been to don't.

And this is a great idea...our school has a few Timmys that we can use our student cards to swipe with...really speeds things up.

Yeah that is what I meant, instead of the debt cards which wouldn't make sense for them, they implement these tims cards.
