Where a Tim Hortons Week Actually Goes
Most people underestimate the drink and overestimate the food. A donut is under two dollars and a bagel not much more; a large specialty drink can cost more than both together, every day, five days a week. Change the drink slot on Monday to Friday in the planner above and the week total moves further than anything else you can do to the plan.
The second lever is size. Tims prices its drink ladders so each step up costs less than the one before in percentage terms, which reads like value but only if you actually wanted the larger cup. The third is buying baked goods by the box: a dozen costs meaningfully less per donut than twelve singles, so a week that includes a box beats a week of daily singles.
Meal Planner Questions
How much does eating at Tim Hortons cost per week?
It depends entirely on the drink. A daily breakfast of a bagel and a coffee runs about $3.88 a day, or roughly $27.16 a week. Swap that coffee for a large specialty drink and the same week climbs by half again. Build your own week above and the total does the arithmetic.
What are the cheapest things on the Tim Hortons menu?
The five cheapest items on the menu are Chocolate Glazed Timbit ($0.39), Birthday Cake Timbit ($0.39), Honey Dip Timbit ($0.39), Old Fashioned Plain Timbit ($0.39), Sour Cream Glazed Timbit ($0.39). Timbits and plain baked goods are where the menu is cheapest per item; brewed coffee is the cheapest drink before anything is added to it.
Is the plan saved if I close the page?
Only if you press Save Plan. That stores the week and your budget in this browser, and it comes back automatically next time you open the page. Nothing is sent anywhere, and clearing your browser data clears the plan.
How many calories should a day of Tim Hortons be?
The standard reference is 2,000 calories a day, which the nutrition calculator uses for its daily value bars. The planner shows a daily average across the week, so an occasional heavy day matters less than what the seven days add up to.
How do I eat at Tim Hortons on a budget?
Three levers, in order of size. Drink plain brewed coffee instead of a specialty drink; take the smaller size, since the price ladder rises faster than the volume you actually want; and buy baked goods in a box rather than singly, where the per-item price drops. The planner makes each one visible — change a single slot and watch the week total move.
Can I plan for more than one person?
Add each person's items into the same slots — a slot holds five. For a proper split by group, with a per-person figure and a printable quote, the catering calculator is the better tool.
Why do some items say "from" a price?
Because they come in sizes. The planner uses the smallest size's price so the week total is a floor rather than a guess, and the item page for each drink lists every size with its own price and calories.
