Starting on the 31st October McDonalds are giving away one retro Coca-Cola glass free with every large meal or premium salad purchased.

The glasses look great this year, I can't post a link because I'm a newbie..

Official MoneySavingExpert.com insert:

The offer's on until 20 Nov 2011 or until glasses run out. Excludes the breakfast menu. There are six designs available. Thanks d4n for the great tip.

    Apologies if this has already been posted elsewhere.

    6 new retro design glasses available until 21/11/11 free with every large meal or salad.

    Not sure if they're available to buy like in previous years, be nice if someone knows. Would also be nice to know which glasses are available and when.

    Do you have to ask for one or should they be given out anyway?

    Went round drive thru last night, completely forgot about the deal and didn't get one.
  • I still got some from last year that I haven't used yet and the ones that I've used so far are still going strong! Thanks OP, will remember to ask if not given when buying a large meal.

    From what I remember you should get them automatically. I made the mistake last year of ordering a regular sized meal and didn't get a glass. You have to 'go large' to get one.

    If you don't think you can go on look back and see how far you've come
  • if anyone is not collecting the codes (cokezone), that come with the free glasses, i would be grateful for them. I think they are worth 5 points each

    Can you buy the glasses alone, and how much are they?

    And how much is a premium salad (you get a cup with one)? I haven't been to Micky D's in years, but the cups look cute and you get entered to wine prizes when you enter the code on them.

    Kudos to the one I went to for lunch today, they had to remind me to grab the glass as I was in such a hurry!

    Entered my first code and got the points, but the stupid flash animation wouldn't complete to let me see if I won anything - so I'm assuming I haven't. Only want one more glass to complete my set after the last Coke glass I got from Cokezone got broken. The Play.com Monopoly offer was probably better and Coke glasses do roll around every year so it's not so bad.

    [EDIT] but on reflection, I think when you enter the code you have to click on the coke glass and the "Drink" button below the code box to enter the compo rather than the normal Submit button. You should get the 5 points whatever happens.
