McGetScrewed

Went to McDonalds this morning and got a breakfast combo. Not that I should be eating this stuff, but those McGriddles are such a treat once and awhile. Got to work and realized that they are doing the Monopoly thing again. I got 6 pieces, and got almost a whole set to win a 1000 dollars. So I looked into it and got the reality of this little scam they pull once a year. Got to love those folks who really think they have a chance at a million dollars. In all reality there are only 3, I repeat 3, Boardwalk pieces printed. You do the odds!

Go figure the Millions they make with the extra traffic they get when this game comes out, and to think they only give out little under 4 million. That is if these controlled pieces ever surface.

Because I was one of those suckers who will get more McDonalds each year when they place the Monopoly.

And, I secretly want a million dollars!

If you want a million dollars, you should start playing the lottery - I've heard the odds of winning are really good.

But you don't get a full tummy and a heart condition playing the lottery.

i dont play the lottery but i do get a lottery scholarship every semester now for a refundable $2500 cash (5,000 a year) so i look at it as im already a winner anyways if i ever do buy a lottery ticket. and mcdonald monoply sucks, altough i do like BK's game pieces because i always when extra food!

By the time you buy enough McD's food to win a million dollars, you will have to use that money to pay for heart bypass surgery from clotted arteries...

I was chit chatting with my wife last night about this, she's a RD, and we both thought it would be funny if instead of money and cars, these companies gave away Gastric bypasses, valve transplants, and liposuctions.

Where I live, I have a better chance of being killed by; sharks, bees, lightning etc than winning any lottery based prize

I do however know 3 people who have won a first prize but nobody who has died from sharks, bees, lightning etc. Weird

If you didn't feel sick eating McD's to begin with, see this story:

You want flies with that? McDonald's Happy Meal shows no sign of decomposing after SIX MONTHS

Looks virtually unchanged other than slightly dehydrated. :hurl:

Ive said it before, and I'll say it again. And again, and again.


McDonald's is the DEVIL !!!



I have a 7 year old son that has NEVER had a McDevil's crappy meal in his life.

Doug I agree, but just curious why you single out MCD? What do you think about the other chains?

When I read ''MC get screwed'', I thought I did something wrong.
