Some of them will just give you a large if you want it for free, others will insist on only the small size being free. I do not believe they will allow you to "pay the difference" as they would be dealing with pennies, literally. I've never seen it anyway. As for T.H. coffee versus McD's, I also think McD's has the lead. A far as the size of the free coffee, it depends on location/manager.

They say the free coffee is only small and when i asked for medium they wanted to charge me. Other McDonalds gave me free large or mediums. They said i didnt give respect when i said the other McDonalds gave it to me.They are very rude with customers. Im a regular customer because of free coffee i didnt go to McDonalds cause the manager treated me very rude and impolite. Her "name is theepa" is what she said and she also didint have a tag on her uniform. Im not happy with that branch anymore. McDonalds in flemigton is a rip off.

Just make your own coffee and put in travel mugs, no more spills and no more cups and lids go into waste after being used for merely minutes. and BTW, i had given up on TH because none of their locations in my area have consistence coffee. maybe 1 in 4 times i get good ones, the rest of the times are totally water down crap. I don't go anywhere for coffee anymore, only buy fair trade beans and make my own. Help the planet!

As you may know, McDonalds is offering a free coffee with your breakfast choice for 2 weeks (last week and this week) The ads are all over... Today, I went to the Waterfront McDoanlds in Vancouver as I usually do each morning, and I ordered my regular breakfast combo meal: 1) bacon bagel 2) hashbrown 3) small coffee The regular price (including the coffee),for this combo of the 3 items is $4.49 Today I ordered the same combo of 3 items and they charged the following: 1) bacon bagel - $2.99 2) hashbrown - $1.29 3) coffee (free?) re: their promotion The total price for the exact same order, including the "free" coffee was $4.49 (where is the free coffee savings) The price is exactly the same - except I don't get a free coffee as advertised - the promotion is a scam! I found a manager and brought it to his attention. He advised the staff on duty of the correct way to ring up the meal combo sale, as individual items, thus ensuring the coffee is actually free. He corrected my transaction. The woman who served me, laughed and stated she has been over charging customers all week!!! How many other staff at this and other McDonald's are doing the same thing and overcharging customers during this supposed "free coffee" campaign? The free coffee is not free in Vancouver — read on.…
As you may know, McDonalds is offering a free coffee with your breakfast choice for 2 weeks (last week and this week) The ads are all over…

Today, I went to the Waterfront McDoanlds in Vancouver as I usually do each morning, and I ordered my regular breakfast combo meal:
1) bacon bagel
2) hashbrown
3) small coffee
The regular price (including the coffee),for this combo of the 3 items is $4.49

Today I ordered the same combo of 3 items and they charged the following:
1) bacon bagel — $2.99
2) hashbrown — $1.29
3) coffee (free?) re: their promotion
The total price for the exact same order, including the “free” coffee was $4.49 (where is the free coffee savings)

The price is exactly the same — except I don’t get a free coffee as advertised — the promotion is a scam!

I think it is a great promotion on the part of mcdonalds. I am sure that the average person that gets a free coffee spends more than enough on other things to pay for it. It also exposes a large number of coffee drinkers to try it, some will surely come back and pay for it in the future. tim hortons is good and always busy. my advice is that if you want to improve your business come out with better products Mike, a couple years ago I complained about the cappucino that I was served at a tim horton’s. one of the high people in the company told me “according to the beverage industry there is no coffee in cappucino” I replied that this is news to the country of italy!

How do you suggest to pay for this? should mcdonalds raise the prices of all their items by 0.10 to provide pensioners with free coffee? I will make you a deal, if you submit your budget and show that you truly need free coffee, I will provide a coffee machine and can of coffee so you can make your own. If pensioners need free coffee, it should not be provided through requirements on a private business. Instead of free coffee, why don't we provide free budget counseling to pensioners and other retirees so they can learn to live better on what they have. Sharyn, you want free coffee, always?
