McDonalds Monopoly has 370 as a prize

Man...I'll just cancel my order & go to McDonald's every day. Not that many people eat at McDonald's right? Should be a pretty easy win?

I think I am going to rush down there and get two double bacon cheese burgers with a large order fries and a side of deep fried lard chips with sour cream dressing!

Wrong, you should only play to receive a chance for a free burger or drink or whatever. The odds are exactly like it's stated.

12 winners. Now that's out of millions of game pieces printed, so even that 1 printed ticket will not even come to your state. I could have 4000 pieces and the chances of winning still suck major donkeys. Two years ago, I accumulated more weight than actual stated prizes.

Sounds like it is time for a sarcasm detector recalibration.

It's not sarcasm when I really mean what I said. I'm not the only one who tried to accumulate 1000s of pieces. I did a stat project in college where 6 friends and I gained a good 7lbs each eating nothing but McDs. We got about 500 tickets and still not a single winner. We went to like 15 different McDonalds.

Freaken Boardwalk!

If you won, you would have to pay income taxes on your winnings. It would count as earned income and thus be taxed at your highest marginal rate. Your $38,000 Z would cost an extra $12,000 (more or less) in cash.

The 370 Z is pure sex! It is hot, loud, and rough!

After thinking about it i would just ask them if i could get it's MSRP in cash instead, then pay off the remainder of my current Z.

They would probably offer you a only small fraction of the MSRP....they probably got the car for free in exchange for the promotional advertising they gave Nissan...in fact I would not be surprised if Nissan gave them the car and then paid additional fees on top of that..after they ( Nissan) are getting millions in promotion being a part of all this..

I used to be in advertising and i have some idea how these things work...
