Some Ontario residents who were misled by a glitch in Tim Hortons' Roll Up To Win Contest, and mistakenly told they had won $10,000, are now exploring their legal options against the Canadian coffee chain.

“I expect the $10,000 and [Tim Hortons] will be hearing from a lawyer,” Jeremy McDougall, of Tillsonburg, Ont., told CTV News Toronto Thursday.

Jeremy McDougall sounds like a loser, and threatening to sue for $10,000 is pathetic.  Even if it was $100,000, I suspect there wouldn't be any lawyers who'd take that case on contingency.  😄

What about this case? 

This one is a serious matter and a bit different.

I don't really know.  For coffee it's pretty simple - there's never any reason for scalding hot coffee.  For tea I guess it's supposed to be brewed at upwards of 100 degrees, and then steep for over 5 minutes, but then what does that do to the lineup?  I guess you don't serve it at drive-throughs?  That one will be interesting to see.
