What did you win at McDonalds?

The Monopoly McDonalds promotion has ended now so did anyone win anything? I went twice during the promotion and I won a McFlurry, a coffee and a bacon and egg McMuffin.

Has anyone heard of anyone winning any of the big prizes or was it just a way to make people go in there?

    In my household we won 5 big Macs, 4 Apple pies, 2 Fruit Bags, 1 porridge. and lots of stomach ache from eating the food to try and get the streets. Filled up 3 game boards missing one street on each board on every colour. Never expected anything else to be honest.

    Never suck to the depths of dumpster diving to look for the stickers as other people did.

    I wonder how many of the big prizes were never claimed because people threw away the key streets like:

    Mayfair, Bond Street, Coventry Street, Strand,

    i didnt win anything.

    to be fair, i only got one ticket (which i needed another 2 to claim a prize). on the plus side though, i didnt even buy the milkshake to begin with, so i cant very well complain :D
