One lucky Manchester shopper has won a year's worth of free drinks from the newly opened Tim Hortons in Manchester city centre - and got up extremely early to ensure he was first in the queue.
Dan Clarke started queuing at 1am this morning, withstanding the great British weather to claim the prize worth around £3,100. The giveaway marked the opening of the Canadian restaurant on Market Street - the first of the chain’s city centre branches.
The store officially opened this morning at 7am, and promised the first person in the queue free coffee every day for a whole year, meaning Dan had queued for six hours to claim his prize.
