Tim Hortons Cashier Sings, Dances, Brightens Customers' Days (VIDEO)

As if the prizes weren’t enough reason to Roll Up The Rim at Tim Hortons, here's another one.

An energetic cashier made a winning customer's day with a little song and dance, a YouTube video shows. Judging by the comments, the employee works in the Student Centre of McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont. And the students love her.

"Went to Mac for six years, she was there all six years. Absolutely amazing. This woman restores my faith in humanity every morning with a large (or on bad days, extra large) double-double," wrote Ryan Trepanier in the YouTube comments.

"One time I was on the verge of dropping out, then she sang me a song and made me the perfect Earl Grey, and now I'm graduating with honours," YouTube user templesherly wrote.

The employee apparently also draws smiles on the cups (and even hearts for Valentine's Day).

So if you're not a Roll Up The Rim winner, don't sweat it -- she still seems to find a way to make customers' days special.
