OH DAMN! I noticed that this morning but I forgot to roll up my rim. Luckily my cup is still in my car. A little excitement to look forward to for the first ten seconds of the drive home.
So what method do you use to roll up the rim? I use the bottom-front teeth method, so I can keep a hand on the steering wheel.
I usually win lots of free coffee and muffins. Never a cookie or any big ticket items.
Good luck to us all, I'll try to post my results here daily, quoting myself.

It's a Canadian thing, and if we told you, we'd have to kill you. ;-)

A little difficult to describe. Might have to make a video and post it. lol.
I hold the cup with both hands with my two thumbs on the arrows, press the cup inwards then lift the thumbs. My wife taught me that one. More teeth friendly.

Dang, Mr. Horseshoes! Where do you go to win so much? Burlington has been pretty dry for me so far. Maybe all the winning cups in Burlington are at the back of the closet.

Oh yeah, a funny thing...
That one coffee I did manage to win... my wife borrowed my car that evening for a quick errand as I was blocking hers in the driveway. While she was out she thought she'd do me a favour and she took my car through the wash & while she was there she threw my winning cup away!!!

Be sure if you roll up the rim you don't get help from anyone, it could get nasty!
