Timmies' cards just aren't quite ready


By Blackwalt - Posted on 17 January 2008

At Christmas I received three Timmies' gift cards. Something I was very happy about.

However, it seems that my regular drivethru stop is not totally prepared for them.

Here is a picture of my third issue with the Timmies' staff. Please note the bottom entry Request Additional tender 129.39. Yes, it was a $130 coffee. Where was I? Starbucks?

Needless to say, this erased my card completely and her simple question "How much money did you have on the card?" kind of tipped me off to the problem.

I did get my coffee at least. And $2.50 in change, cash, as I had answered $3 and something.

From what I could tell (later), there was only $2.00 on the card so once again I ended up with some free money but as it was their staff screwup I wasn't too worried about it.

As I left the store I overheard her talking to one of the other staff, "I just made a big mistake!"

Good luck balancing your cash at the end of your shift.

I'd better make sure I have 200$ in my pocket before I use it.

I think I have an old card laying around with $2,000 on it... (wink wink)
