Last time I had a timmys donut I had 1 bite, and threw the rest in the garbage.

Ya Wendys bought timmies, last I heard they were thinking of selling them to make some $$$$. In some oplaces you will find a timmies and a Wendy's sharing the same restaurant space.

If your ever inthe Wendys/Timmies in Canmore, they have the best hand dryer in the mens bathroom--its a Dyson, and man does it work well!! 2 (very dry) thumbs up

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

LOL - that is funny. I'll check on my next drive through town.

Actually Hubby and I were in line at the drive-thru once at that Timmies, and there is a Shell next door, and this lady drove away from the pump with the pump still in the tank. It ripped the hose and nozzle right out of the pumps. It was hysterical. I hope they made use of the dryer in Timmies if they got dirty.

Here it is, very similar looking to the one in Canmore. test shave been conducted that other blowers are not that healthy, as when the air starts a blowing, it blows everything around, including whats on the floor!! has you can see, the Dyson has solved that problem, and it blows very warm air

Not all of them. Isn't it just the mall and gas station ones which don't have the fryers? There are still lots of stores that make their own. My cousin owns six of them.

I worked in 4 large stores, in two provinces, and they had all been switched over...As of like, two years ago, it was mandatory as far as I know. They were wasting too much by making them themselves, and with the rise in food cost, they decided this would be the better way to do it. When they made them themselves, they had to make a days worth of donuts in the morning and that was it. If you didnt sell them all, they got thrown out, if you sold them all, you didn't' have a way to make more. This way, as junky as they taste now, you can cook off a dozen donuts in 2 mins if you have to, but you can also bake as few as 4 at a time...helped when we worked night shift when somene really wanted a donut we didnt have, we could make a couple, sell them and not have to worry about throwing out the rest at the end of the night. We always used to cook off fresh cinnamon buns for the police officers that came on their night shifts (I worked the back bake shift 11pm-7am). They appreciated that :D

If your cousin found a way to keep the fryers, I wish i was there...but I've been all the way to Ont, and south to Maine, and they've all been the quick-bake donuts. I wish they would bring the fryers back though...:S The old apple fritters were FANTASTIC!

I did, though, try a Krispie Kream donut when I was down in the states awhile ago..they are very good, but i could see how GINORMOUS I would get eating them all the time :D good thing it's on the other side of town from our apartment LOL
