McDonalds Monopoly!

[surfinrach90]

It's back!

I saw an advert on TV this morning that the Monopoly thing in McDonalds starts tomorrow. I figured I'd make this thread to let people know and to just generally chat about it.

I'm pretty sure it's been done in the US, but anybody else have it where they live?

Also, I'm curious to know if anybody had won anything? Or will you be trying to win something this time around?

I picked up a leaflet from McDonalds today (yay! haven't had one in ages) so I've scanned it for your viewing pleasuuuuuuure.

That monopoly thing is fun, gives people a reason to go other than food:lol:

I remember that monopoly game, it was going on while I was in England. I nearly won the £100,000, I only needed one more ticket, but I never got it before the end of the game! :sad: Now I'm £100,000 short in life. :sad:

I remember I won my gameboy color from Monopoly, other than that me and my sister usually put ours together.

Man i hate this game, always seems to tease me of the big prize. Last time i was 1 short of gettin the BIG money so i ate it like everyday and spent BIG money :lol: never got it....i dont think its goin on in the U.S right now though.

 

[Foosoo]

You mean the same one as mine Bliss? how many tickets did you need to complete the win?

 

[Bliss]

i needed 3 to win and i only had 2....my brother used to work for Mcdonalds back in the day and he said that the only way u can win is if u eat in a mcdonalds in different states....he said that certain mcdonalds get certain pieces.

 

[Foosoo]

Really? I had two pieces as well, and I never got the third one. God I hate McDonalds.

I used to play back when I was gullible enough to be lured into eating that filth by gimmicks like the Monopoly game.

These days, I'd rather live a few more years than trade them for a 1-in-1000000000 chance at some toy.

Sort of like "God I hate McDonalds"? Oh wait, that was someone else.
