McDonald's Monopoly

I read there was pressure on them to not run it this year, but it's back today.

I don't bother collecting the game pieces particularly, but I do quite like getting free food.
Dp brought me a McFlurry home after work today and I won a free porridge or hash brown.
And with one of the online codes a free 2 month subscription to Amazon kindle unlimited, which I must remember to cancel after two months or I'll be charged for it.

Any other winners today?

I went through the drive thru after the gym Blush didn’t win anything though!

I'll be going a little later so I'll let you know! Apparently they're not doing extra tokens for large meals to discourage people from sizing up?

TheChippendenSpook · 20/03/2019 18:43

I won the kindle thing but I chose the three free books as I'd forget to cancel the subscription, knowing me!

Ooh, I want a kindle. Is 2 months free a good prize then?

GirlOnIt · 20/03/2019 18:51

I considered the three books @TheChippendenSpook . It's only from 10 books and I can't say any caught my attention. I'm not sure exactly what the subscription gets @swindy it's usually £7.99 a month. It says magazines too so hoping I get some use from it.

The do look a bit naff but I have until 7th June to become inspired by them Grin

Argh, no points on a filet o fishHmm. I don't eat meat, so that's a bummer.

GirlOnIt · 20/03/2019 20:32

Oh no that's not fair @CallarMorvern. It doesn't seem to be on that much looking at the list. I only really like the McChicken sandwich or the 99p cheese burgers (burger wise) and it's not on those either.

I won a carrot bag or sugar doughnut and £10 off red letter days.

I'm not going to use the red letter days voucher if anyone wants it? Can't say the same for the doughnut...Blush

BananaInMyPocket · 21/03/2019 00:12

@CallarMorvern that always pisses me off too, I'm not heavily into meat and love a filet o fish but they never have the monopoly game on it Sad

Koalablue · 21/03/2019 01:48

We one a $500 gift voucher for an online shop.

torthecatlady All meals, regardless of size, get the same amount of tokens. So extra value means get 5 and premium meals get 8.

CallarMorvern A Filet O’Fish meal is an extra value meal. All extra value meals get 5 tokens, two on the fries and three on the drinks. None of them, including the Big Mac, Nuggets etc. get them on the sandwich/main. So you’re not missing out by not eating meat.

Only premium meals, like the wraps, legends, selects, receive stickers on the sandwich/main.

Palominoo · 21/03/2019 05:00

Franchises might have different rules concerning the stickers.

Ahh, we rarely get a meal, as if I want fries, I only want small fries and DD often doesn't want them. So it's still encouraging people to overeat. Meh.

Palominoo No, they don’t. All UK McDonalds have the same policies, rules etc. surrounding Monopoly to ensure consistency.

CallarMorvern Small fries don’t have them as they are saver menu/Happy Meal items.

You don’t have to have fries, either. If you get a fruit bag, carrot bag or a side salad as part of your meal, you get the same number of stickers (five for extra value, eight for premium regardless of medium/large).

Am I the only one who read the title as McDonalds being the only place you can eat in town, hence the monopoly Confused

MissMooMoo · 21/03/2019 13:11

I won an apple pie last night Smile

Chocolatethief · 21/03/2019 13:32

I went last night and won 3 months now tv entertainment pass and 1 month movies pass

BarbaraofSevillle · 21/03/2019 13:36

Disappointed you don't get stickers with coffee, only cold drinks.

I usually get a fish filet and a coffee, which would get no stickers at all. Oh well.

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 21/03/2019 13:47

BarbaraofSevillle You do, if you get a meal. Every meal gets five (extra value) or eight (premium) stickers.

So you would still get five stickers if you get an extra value fillet meal with a coffee.
