In April 2024, some customers received a "Roll Up the Rim Recap" email that wrongly listed a boat as a prize. Tim Hortons said technical errors caused incorrect information about rolls or prizes, and sent a follow-up telling recipients to disregard the first email.
The lesson: if a prize message is unexpected, confirm it through an official channel before you act on it.
Do not click links in unsolicited prize messages. To report one, contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
It depends on the contest. The official rules state whether a purchase is needed and whether a free entry option exists. A purchase does not improve your odds in every promotion, so read the entry section.
Roll Up the Rim is the annual promotion most readers ask about. For its dates and how it works, see the Roll Up the Rim page. For the app, see the Tim Hortons app guide.
