Things That Annoy Me Thursday: Monolopy at McDonalds

It’s back!

Monopoly at McDonalds.

Yes, we frequent there often. Like once a week. Sometimes twice if it’s a hard week (read: something that I’ve cooked burnt.) I’m always in awe of the people who never get fast food and in a way, I sort of want to slip their children a fry. But I wouldn’t, because people can make their own choices, even though it’s the wrong one in my eyes. My parents mainly gave me healthy food. The second I was out of their home, I went wild. And by wild, I don’t mean drinking and partying. I mean I ran to the store and got like every box of Little Debbie snacks available. It can backfire, people.

But that’s not my point.

My point is, Monopoly is back. And each year I write a blog entry saying that THIS IS THE YEAR THAT I WILL WIN SOMETHING.

And each year it never happens.

Last year the only thing I won was a small drink. I was insulted. I give McDonalds a substantial amount of money and THAT’S my reward? I couldn’t even get a BURGER? Or a free milkshake? And then you hear on the news how some person found a game piece in the TRASH and it ends up being a winner. Like the $50,000 winner.

Not. Fair!

Still, I haven’t lost hope. Maybe this is my year. After all, it’s the 20th year of the Monopoly game. Maybe that means something. So far, it’s already been a step up from last year. I’ve won a free quarter pounder with cheese AND a free medium fries. Guess what I’m having for lunch this week?

Yes, I enter my codes online. If someone doesn’t want their codes, I will take them. I’m serious. My e-mail is Princess543@yahoo.com

If I win something, well, I can’t promise that I’ll share because honestly, I’ve been playing this game for YEARS and I feel I’m due for a big win.

And also, because I’m at McDonalds every week.

(Their new pumpkin shake is quite tasty.)
