Reposting from the Covid thread

Well the first Canadian "victim" of the C-Virus has been found.

/mourn Roll up the Rim to "please try again"

It is survived by a digital app that no one will bother with but the company will claim is a success.

Quote:
The coffee-and-doughnut chain is removing all of the contest's paper cups over health concerns around staff handling items recently gripped and sipped by customers returning them for prizes.

Tim Hortons does not identify COVID-19 as the catalyst, but says "the current public health environment" means "it's not the right time for team members...to collect rolled up tabs that have been in people's mouths."

The company says it will redistribute all $30 million worth of prizes to restaurant giveaways and a digital contest.
