ArmstrongB次元官网网址檚 Marty Eckert goes to his local Tim Hortons every day, and his faithful patronage has paid off in a big way.

Eckert was sitting at home on his couch one night in March when he realized he had 16 B次元官网网址渞ollsB次元官网网址 on his Tim Hortons app from the Roll Up the Rim to Win contest.

B次元官网网址淚 was flipping away going through them and won a few coffees, and on the final one I won the car,B次元官网网址 he said.

B次元官网网址淚 thought it was a joke. I had to call my wife to come and verify that it was actually real.B次元官网网址

Eckert is the winner of a 2023 fully loaded Volkswagen Taos Highline, one of 15 given away through the ever-popular Tim Hortons contest in Canada this year.

He and his family met with members of Vernon Volkswagen and Tim Hortons staff to receive the keys to his new ride outside the Armstrong Tim Hortons Wednesday morning, May 31.

He said he checked out the car beforehand, and B次元官网网址渋tB次元官网网址檚 real nice.B次元官网网址

Eckert isnB次元官网网址檛 sure what heB次元官网网址檒l do with the vehicle yet B次元官网网址 all he knows is itB次元官网网址檚 a pretty nice B次元官网网址渂onusB次元官网网址 for a cup of coffee.

Angela Sparrow, financial services manager with Vernon Volkswagen, said EckertB次元官网网址檚 new vehicle has about a $40,000 value, and itB次元官网网址檚 one of the more popular models on their lot.

B次元官网网址淟etB次元官网网址檚 put it this way B次元官网网址 I donB次元官网网址檛 have any,B次元官网网址 she said. B次元官网网址淭hey sell out the minute they hit my lot.B次元官网网址

Handing the keys to Eckert was particularly rewarding for Sparrow; theyB次元官网网址檝e known each other for about 30 years.

B次元官网网址淚 grew up in Armstrong B次元官网网址 I lived down the road from them,B次元官网网址 she laughed. B次元官网网址淎nd Marty came to me in March and showed me the email that he got from Volkswagen about winning and it was quite overwhelming.

B次元官网网址淚B次元官网网址檓 just so excited for the Eckert family, it couldnB次元官网网址檛 have happened to a greater family, and I think itB次元官网网址檚 fantastic for Armstrong.B次元官网网址

Matt Moore, chief operating officer for Tim Hortons Canada, happened to be in the area on the morning of the key hand-off before heading to Calgary on a tour to talk with franchise owners. He was glad to be able to help Eckert celebrate.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 amazing, the brand is special, the Roll Up, obviously itB次元官网网址檚 iconic, itB次元官网网址檚 been around for decades,B次元官网网址 said Moore, who before becoming COO was part of Tim Hortons digital team and played a role in migrating the Roll Up contest from paper cups to the app.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 great to celebrate it, the programB次元官网网址檚 exciting and I canB次元官网网址檛 wait to see more winners next year as well.B次元官网网址
