It's all over my Facebook how McDonald's Monopoly has started, but every time I've ever had one during Monopoly season, zilch happens! I just wondered if anyone on here has actually succeeded at it, or if it's just a play for more customers?

I don't know, it was years ago. Im going on what he says.

Are the apple pies still boiling hot molten in the middle? Grin With a warning label about 'hot contents'?

goldenbulldog · 23/03/2018 21:55

probably a big Mac I never claimed

Creambun2 · 23/03/2018 21:59

A cheeseburger

TroubledTribble28 · 23/03/2018 22:01

Three ice creams bought and we won a free sundae, a muffin/apple pie and £10 off a phone case. None of the plain code things worked though.

Creambun2 · 23/03/2018 22:03

Why did mcdonalds stop doing the apple pies with ice cream on the side?

juls1888 · 23/03/2018 22:06

I got £20 last year

CotswoldStrife · 27/03/2018 17:45

Just coming back to this thread to say that we got our first Monopoly tickets last night and won a photo book. Haven't looked at it online yet, I am expecting a hefty postage charge though Hmm

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2018 17:52

They must rely quite heavily on people not bothering to claim the prizes. All those teeny tiny stickers, easily lost or forgotten.

I have one for a free Pepsi Max in the car. It will never make it out of there.

CotswoldStrife I believe the postage is £1.99, so no, not hefty at all Smile

Sparklingbrook No, we really don’t. The majority of prizes are claimed, especially the little ones for a free apple pie/small fries/sundae etc. Everyone loves them.

We don’t offer Pepsi, just Coke, so your sticker will be for Coke Zero. KFC is thataway 👉 Grin

Mcdonalds monopoly simply encourages teenagers to google the select meals to get 9 stickers.

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2018 19:41

I doubt everyone loves them TBH.

Sorry i got the soft drink wrong, I didn't study the teeny tiny sticker that closely. Hmm But I won't be going to McDonalds in the near future, especially now I know they only do horrible Coke.

Creambun2 As long as you’re buying legitimately you are welcome to buy in whatever combination you desire. However, we are wise to the tricks the general public attempt to pull and do stop them in their tracks.

Also due to gambling laws you have to be 16+ to claim prizes, so if we are unsure they are over 16 and they can’t produce ID to prove it, they will not be allowed to claim.

I doubt everyone loves them TBH.

Sparklingbrook You can doubt as much as you want, but the volume in which the prizes are claimed says otherwise.

There’s no need to be defensive; I was having a joke. If you didn’t even notice you were drinking coke when you last went in though, you mustn’t find it that horrible.

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2018 20:05

It was DS's drink, a coke as I said upthread. Confused

pastabest · 27/03/2018 20:07

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 27/03/2018 20:12

Sparklingbrook If you mentioned it upthread it was several days ago, so I don’t recall you saying that. Did you not have a drink yourself?

My stepdad won an iPod once

LegallyBrunet · 27/03/2018 20:18

@Ginorchoc, ah Sleaford... that explains a lot.... It's nineteen miles outside of Lincoln and it's... it's not great...

YassQueen · 27/03/2018 20:21

We've won a cheesburger, apple pie/donut, milkshake/fries and a mcflurry, as well as a £10 Sky Store voucher this week. And a shitload of the little place tokens which we'll probably exchange for a Now TV pass.

I've been finishing work at 3am absolutely ravenous so they've been having a lot of our custom Blush

flowerslemonade · 27/03/2018 20:44

Are they only on some items? I bought a hamburger, hot chocolate and apple pie the other day and I don't think I got any stickers :(

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2018 20:47

They are tiny stickers flowers, attached to the cups.

flowerslemonade Yes, they’re only in certainly items and mostly targeted to meals. Hamburgers don’t come with them as they are on the saver menu, and hot drinks only get stickers if they’re with a meal. Apple pies don’t come with stickers.

For future reference, here are the sticker items:

• Medium Fries – 2 x stickers
• Large Fries – 3 x stickers
• Medium Carbonated Soft Drink – 2 x stickers
• Large Carbonated Soft Drink – 3 x stickers
• Premium Salad (excluding Shaker Side Salad) – 3 x stickers
• Chicken Legend – 3 x stickers
• Chicken Legend with Bacon – 3 x stickers
• Chicken Selects (3 or 5 pieces) – 3 x stickers
• Big Tasty – 3 x stickers
• Big Tasty with Bacon – 3 x stickers
• The BBQ, The Classic or The Spicy from The Signature Collection – 3 x stickers
• Cadbury Creme Egg or Cadbury Caramel McFlurry – 2 x stickers
• Mozzarella Dippers – 2 x stickers
• Big Flavour Wrap – 3 x stickers
• Regular Iced Frappe/Iced Fruit Smoothie – 2 x stickers
• Large Iced Frappe/Iced Fruit Smoothie – 3 x stickers
• Shaker Side Salads, medium or large hot drinks or drinks served in a bottle or carton – 2 x stickers if ordered after 10.30am as part of a medium meal, 3 x stickers if ordered after 10.30am as part of a large meal.

They are tiny stickers flowers, attached to the cups.

Sparklingbrook The really tiny sticker on a hot cup is the loyalty hot drink sticker which is permenant. The monopoly stickers are larger and very bright, but they aren’t automatically added to hot drinks. You only get stickers on a hot drink as part of a meal, which is why flowers didn’t get any stickers.

Sparklingbrook · 27/03/2018 21:07

So many stickers...

Gingerninj · 27/03/2018 21:19

I won a donut the other day (shows how well the diet is going haha)

CotswoldStrife · 27/03/2018 21:28

WhatToDo thanks for the postage info, that will be worth doing.

I claim the free food and as we use McD's as a drive through cafe frequently, we have lots of loyalty drinks cards to use too.

My DD got a meal on the way home from an activity, that's how we got the stickers. Our large toffee lattes were not part of a meal and only had the loyalty coffee bean stickers on. Although I can recommend the iced frappes!
