Who's playing? I'm guilty, haha. I've been eating at McDonalds for the last week, just collecting the monopoly things. I'm one sticker away from $1,000,000 (anyone have Boardwalk?), one sticker from a new Dodge Viper (anyone have Short Line Railroad?), one away from a PSP+PS2 (anyone have Vermont Avenue?), one away from a HP computer (anyone have Virginia Avenue?), one away from a JVC+LG home makeover (anyone have Pennsylvania Avenue?)and one away from a 20GB iPod + 1,000 ITMS songs (anyone have Mediterranean Avenue?)

I have to admit to falling into this "Monopoly" too. But I have a theory that the pieces I need are
on the other side of the country! I would think that's how this game really works, so that it's harder to win. Oh, and probably only
one Boardwalk which won't show up until the end of the game.
Then again, that could just be a conspiracy theory.
-P-
Ok, ok, for the sake of the game - If anyone has: Boardwalk (I'll give you half the prize), Penn. Ave, Kentucky Ave, Virginia Ave, or Vermont Ave... PM me. I have several doubles and others so we can trade or I can send you a bit of a donation.

No, the management company that runs the games' employees were stealing certain stickers so the employees could win prizes. The stickers never actually got to McDonalds, but it wasn't there fault, it was the level up where they had the problem. In the rules of the games, though, (haven't read them this year but last time I did) the ratios of production for certain stickers. You then also have to consider that A LOT of people just throw them out, or someone who does get Boardwalk probably won't get Park Place (since thats not THAT common either) unless they are a hardcore McDonalds eatter.

You can mail away for game pieces too... so I sent out 30 envelopes with my address on them. If I don't win anything from the collect pieces, I'll have $30 (or more) Best Buy Bucks

I would NEVER bid on any of those "Boardwalk" auctions. I checked them out and they are all "sketchy," talking about PayPal only, no refunds, or can't provide a picture.
If someone REALLY had boardwalk, do you really think they'd be selling it on eBay or collecting their $1,000,000?

There are a lot of "Boardwalk" pieces on Ebay, i'm suprised that the people that are selling them were actually smart enough to sign up for Ebay.

All sales final NO refunds! NO real McDonalds game pieces, NO real Best Buy Bucks, NO real money, NO real anythings are involved in this auction. Winning bidder will receive 1 Boardwalk piece that I personally cut from the gameboard and drew on with a REAL Sharpie and 10,000 Monopoly dollar ($19.99 extra shipping fee for the Monopoly dollars)

Possibly not. They had this running in Oz a few years back as well, didn't win anything as l can't stand Maccas at the best of times.
Just have this weird image of a whole heap of people from this forum descending on Maccas in the US demanding their meals get super sized, and wanting to know what pieces they need in order to win an invision gallery licence.
Good luck to everyone taking part in this, hope you win something
