Of course microwave's does wonders to miniture electronics.
Im Canadian, so I don't have any new American $20's.
Any Americans out their with new $20's and a Microwave?
I find this hard to believe, that the US now has exploding money :)
But if you do a google search on exploding american money and click on the link regarding prisons and planets, you will see some pictures.
Im not sure if defacing American money is illegal however.

Personally I use a debit card whenever I can so big brother can track me whenever it wants. I just hope I don't get in trouble for buying that happy meal last week.
Unlike the USA, everybody has PIN based Debit cards, which is taken everywhere except Tim Hortons.
If Tim Horton's would start taking Debit, I would never carry cash again.
better than average coffee
That's an understatement. This stuff is addictive.

Tim Horton's is going to open a coffee shop in Kadahar Afganistan, for our Canadian Troups. Because our troups, can't operate without their Tim Horton's fix.

(I had to send this from a coffee shop with free wireless access. They don't want their secrets out here, you know. As always, I paid for my required coffee in untraceable gold dust.)
It didn't explode, it was just clean and kinda crumply.

HEY! We're getting there. It all depends on where you live. In California, the only people who carry cash are those who have it. :)

So? We have drive throughs with debit machines that have Braille on them. Beat that!

One can only assume that it's passengers who are using the Braille, not the drivers.
I will forever love Timmy's for not accepting debit because truly it DOES speed things up to accept only cash.
But why why why can you only get $20s from ATMs... Just give me my $1.45 whenever I need it!
Ugh. Plus I'm only 1 for 23 on winning cups... doesn't help the issue :(
Sir, could you please remove the nail clippers from your carry on and put them in this box for us to keep. And as for all those 20's you are carrying if you could put them in that box.....
On the other subject this coffee sounds good. Are they only in Canada?
I remember the withdrawl of driving from Niagara Falls, ON to Winnipeg, MB last year (I was moving) and I didn't come across ONE Tim's... it was harsh!
Oh and by the way... I'm 1 for 24 now... what is UP with my luck!
AFAIK no one has developed a Rrrroll up the rim stats aggregator for the www. Anyone want to get on that?
Canada 2,607
United States 291
Afganistan 1

(Between sips, rim suddenly rolls up on its own: ) Congratulations! You are the one millionth visitor to our coffeehouse chain! :P
The city of Kitchener, Ontario (including adjacent Cambridge and Waterloo) is serviced by no less than 32 franchises of Tim Hortons. They compete with 166 other donut shops in the area (according to Google Local Search.)
Servicing a region with a population of 350,000, we have approximately one donut shop for every 1750 humans. That's humans - including children and babies.
Fact: When Krispy Kreme moved into Canada, their second store was erected right here. (the first was in Mississauga, aka Toronto). It has since shut down since 3 more Tim's opened within a few blocks to crowd them out. And... their coffee sucked.
A few years ago, Kitchener had the highest per capita police force. Coincidence?
(note: this number dropped dramatically and now we have among the lowest per capita ratio of cops)
FYI Tim Horton's took over all the Bess Eaton Donut Shops in Rhode Island.
I think everyone was kind of shocked when it happened. Tim's always seems to be empty and the Dunkin next door is always packed.
Now I am encouraged to try their coffee sometime.
Me, me, me!
BTW, I haven't seen the new 20's but I hardly use cash. I am the debit card queen.
For those keeping track, I'm 1 for 27 now. I think they hide the winning cups when they see me coming.
httpwebwitch - I didn't know you were from KW! I'm from St. Catharines (until last Spring). Supposedly it is the "Donut Capital of the World". I can't tell you the culture shock of moving to Winnipeg and NOT having a Tim's within a 3 block radius no matter where you are.
