Tim Hortons Raises Prices

Tim Hortons Raises Prices
Those going to Tim Hortons on campus this week may have noticed they paid more for their coffee than they used to. Prices have increased on coffee by 7-8 cents. So next time you head over to the campus Tim Hortons in the Student Centre or elsewhere, be sure to carry some extra spare change.

Price increases are never fun, even if they are only a couple of cents. :(

Doesn't seem like much, but even at one cup a day on school days, thats close to $20 a year. A big increase for a lot of students.

Alternatively, patrons could just go to the Union Market coffee bar. This way support goes to the MSU rather than some huge American company like Tim Hortans.

Didn't the price raise for *all* the food places on campus?
I swear I remember seeing some sort of notice a while back...

I haven't had Tim Hortons in about a year, probably because there's always a long line on campus, and because Williams' hot chocolate is amazing. <3

Never had Williams' hot chocolate before. I'll make sure to have some next time 
Yeah, price increases are never fun. It throws me off, every time I go to the Tim Horton's near my house I always bring 2.88 in exact change for a medium ice cap with a flavour shot XD

It used to be Canadian. Well, it's technically Canadian again, but that was only for tax purposes.
