However, not all prizes are created equal – and neither are all stickers.

These stickers have particularly big prizes, including a £100,000 cash giveaway, and a trip to Ibiza.

What is the best time of day to play McDonald’s Monopoly?

Users play McDonald’s Monopoly by entering the code written on stickers into the chain’s app.

However, it turns out that prizes aren’t determined by what the code on your sticker is but what time you enter the competition.

Maccies has allocated specific prizes to “winning moments” throughout the day, that are so exact the you’ll have to enter the code right down to the correct TENTH of a second.

No one knows when these moments are or how long they last but it means you’re in with a chance of winning whatever code you peel off the McDonald’s packaging.

This could mean that your chances are higher if you enter at a time when less people are playing – such as the early morning or late evening – as you will have less competition.

Why have my stickers already expired?

McDonald’s Monopoly was originally meant to be played earlier in 2021, but was delayed by the pandemic.

Rather than reprint the stickers from then, McDonald’s decided to reuse them, with the understanding that new dates apply.
