I thought the McDonald’s Monopoly prizes were a myth but I bagged £1k on an instant win – it’s actually legit
From £100k cash to a Mini electric car, there are hundreds of prizes to be won on McDonald’s Monopoly.
But if you’re anything like us, it seems that all we ever win is a free bag of fruit or an apple pie…so it’s little wonder a woman named Georgia cast doubt on how legit the popular game really is.
However, her doubts were quickly cast aside when she won a whopping £1k following a visit to the Oxford Circus branch in London.
In a clip shared to TikTok (@georgia_3.0), Georgia can be seen showing off her winning label.
“When they said the McDonald’s Monopoly prizes were a myth but you just won a £1,000 instant win,” she says.
Seconds later, the lucky winner reveals an envelope brimming with £1k in cash.
She captioned the post: “Wthhh it’s actually legit- moral of the story: EAT maccys errrday!!!”
Players who take part in Monopoly can collect stickers from their food packaging that represent train stations or colour co-ordinated road names – much like the classic game.

But there are also some instant wins, with this year’s top prizes being £100,000 in cash for four winners and 2,000 “gold cards”, which gives you free Maccies meal a week for a year.
The post has since gone viral, racking up a whopping 210k views and several comments from intrigued social media users, with many rushing to ask her questions about her win.
“Did you need a receipt to claim it?” asked one.
Georgia replied: “Yes you have to send in the actual sticker!”
A second commented: “Always wanted to win the car.”
Georgia replied: “Lool I’ve been playing to win a Mini Cooper for like 10 years.
“My sis even laughed at me that I was still playing to win this -WHO’S LAUGHING NOW??”
A third enthused: “Yesssss gal!”
Meanwhile, a fourth joked: “And there’s me getting a fruit bag and chips kmt.”
Another noted: “Some people are just lucky in life – congratulations!!”
A further added: “I’m taking it seriously now.”
And one more chimed in: “Legit thought these prizes never got won! Congrats babe.”
But Georgina isn’t the only person to have won on McDonald’s Monopoly in recent years.
