Actually this is not the fault of Micky D's but...

For the past several years there has not been a winner in any of McDonald's Million dollar games (like the Monopoly one the just pulled and now will restart in a few days) because the 7 folks that were hired by McDonalds to des9ign and over see the games were taking the money by rigging the games. I have noit heard this story on national news but it was carried in my local paper (http://www.pal-item.com) about 2 weeks ago that a local woman, that was a part of this group, was hauled off by the FBI.

McDonald's is now re doing the game with a guarantee of big winners

I saw the story in USA today.
BTW I wish Micky D's could guarantee that I would be one of the big winners! :~)

You're kidding! This is certainly a black eye for McDonalds. Shame on anyone unscrupulous enough to take advantage of and defraud this company while it is making efforts to correct the problems of the first contest.

I guess greed will drive some people to try just about anything :(

seriously, when the games are on, we frequent mc d's quite often.
to think that it was for nothing. would i have been lucky enough to get a winning game piece? i dont't know, but it was the hope that made me go to mcdonalds in the first place.

Ohioganic,

Did you know that McDonalds is the best way to get to Monsanto.??

Boycotting GM potato's at McDonalds appears to have the final straw and closed down Monsanto's GM potatoes..
Might be a good thing to keep in mind for next go round..

Byron
