lord.

This is the definition of recession. Banking on the Mickey D’s Monopoly game to get out our parent’s basements!? Talk about rough. The Great Progression: coming soon. Also, look out for The Madbury Club. I don’t know much about it, except that it’s something as epic as The Great Progression, and that my man Theo Martins just blogged about it. I’m just all about charting progress at this point, on both local and global scales. Let’s get it.

Dude, the Monopoly game is a scam. I spent hundreds of dollars at McD’s trying “win” back in the day. I was always one piece short. That’s the kicker: they will only print 1 or 2 of the pieces that you need to win. It’s a scam. Don’t fall for it. I know from experience.

I second stone’s comment. Scamming ass McDonald’s always left me 1 piece short of $1M.

I heard that they purposely print up winning pieces and send them to different states. Anyone down for a road trip?

Everyone needs Boardwalk! Its a scheme to make you buy more items with monopoly stickers. Notice how only the expensive items have them?

Monopoly pieces? I know I won’t win the milli but I’ve settled for the numerous “Free Medium Fries” pieces. Those are clutch. Fattening. Obese. Heavy set. Clutch. Won them after acquiring hash browns from the McD’s in South Station. Was I excited? Yes. Because lunch costs money and tupperware is heavy.

I won a free small Coke today! But why would I go into McD’s just to get a small soda…

You guys clearly aren’t up on the new Monopoly game. I won a gas card yesterday. That 50 bucks is mine! got ‘em.

You don’t have to collect the pieces anymore and smear them on that fake MCD?Monopoly board. They’ve got a whole new system. As long as Manny brings home pieces, I’ll take my chances on another gas card. It’s a recession, shit!

Comment by Marcel 10.26.09 @ 8:05 pm

@marcel …. Send me one of those gas cards…. That is all!

Has anyone ever won this??

Comment by Alison 10.27.09 @ 2:49 pm

yeah that sounds about right for many peeps right now.

Why would anyone even fuck with McDonald’s Monopoly after that huge scandal back in 2001?

Either way, you probably have a better chance at hitting big on a lotto or scratch ticket. Which are both equally wasteful purchases.
