Maxwell house ? ouch.. Even when I run out of other coffee, I can't drink that stuff. I guess if you take cream and milk in it to mask the taste (or give it some), then it may be tolerable to some, but I take my coffee black, so maxwell is not an option.
I think if I use the used coffee from the dredge drawer of my espresso machine to brew a pot of coffee, it would taste better.

It's one thing to save money. But not at the expense of a good cup of coffee. I'm no coffee snob, and you don't need overpriced $7 and $9 Charbucks coffee for something decent (actually charbucks is crap). But you can get some decent blends even at most supermarkets if you don't have a roasting shop near you. Even some of the William Spartivento blends that costco typically sells, are not bad either, and very reasonably priced at under $9/kg. Goldstarcoffee in North York also has some good coffee, but is a little pricier.

Out of most of the fast/quick joints, serving coffee, mcdonalds does have one of the best overall in my opinion. And pretty reasonably priced.

Anybody in Ottawa area tried Bridgehead coffee? It's great coffee. Only problem is they only have a few stores and Ottawa local only.

I don't know about how Timmie servers dispense sugar, at McDonald's the machine dispense difference quantities of sugar depending on cup size for a single sugar order. I find that as cup so size increases, the sweetness level increases. The calibration is not that good. I always ask for black and a pouch of sugar on the side.

As for Maxwell House coffee, I would stop drinking coffee if that was the only brand available. The other really nasty tasting coffee I won't touch is presidents choice in the yellow tin.

Why not simply buy an extra large and then save a portion of it for later unless you don't like cold coffee?

Also while I love these kinds of promotions from McDonalds, I have to say that it does suck with the amount of waste this produces though. The last time they had this promotion, I kept the cups to count how many I bought and I had like 20 cups. I would like to recycle them, but don't they say to not put them in the recycle bin? So that leaves a ton of waste left over in cups and lids. Confused Face

I really wish you could bring your own mug and then have them make your drink in say a stainless steel container and then pour it into your mug to save at least a little waste from going to the landfill.

Thanks op!
No, best time is when they do free small coffees, can usually get a few a day, even if just for the sticker on the cup.

I would recommend getting a grinder and buying Zavida Organica 100% Arabica beans from Costco. $14.99 for 2lb bag. Its certified organic and carbon neutral. Apparently due to the high value of a coffee bean crop it is prone to heavy pesticide use.

The XL is ginormous. I love coffee, but a Medium to Large is just right.

I typically take my first coffee (americano) with me from home in the morning. But then after lunch, I get myself another coffee. We have a TH directly in the building at the office, but I'm not a fan of their watered down flavorless coffee. We have quite a few Keurig machines all around the office, so I just buy some K-cups every so often and use those for my second cup during the day. So it costs me about $0.50 / cup which is pretty decent for a decent cup of coffee (I buy a variety from singlejocoffee so it always keeps it interesting).
Yeah this.. plus a kerig cup is usually 8oz correct? I don't know how much is in an XL from mcds but it's got to be close to a L. If you did the math it's probably cheaper.

I don't see why you cant?
After you order, just give them your mug and ask them to pour into it.
I am sure the employee there are happy to do it.
It is just that you wont get the sticker from the cup.
If I buy something that is not in deep discounted, my father will punish me; everyone will laugh at me. I will be the strange kid who doesn't fit in.
