  • Ok, so I know this is totally stupid, but is anyone else totally craving going to McDonald's to play the Monopoly game? The commercials are on all the time, and it just makes me want the fries and those game pieces so badly! It just reminds me of being a kid and it's so much fun to peel them off (and eat the fries)!

    Please don't say I'm the only one...
  • You are not alone. D@mn them! And D@MN their fries! I bet they get so much more business during the monopoly thing... ridiculous... genius, but ridiculous,... don't be a marketing sucker. Stay strong. xoxoxo
  • I remember monopoly last year...my fiance and I must have gone there almost everyday...sometimes for breakfast AND dinner...now just thinking of that makes me sick to my stomach
  • Nope, I'm starting to think of McDonald's and BK's food as gross and greasy as heck. Yes, I'm still into certain places' stuff (Chic-Fil-At), but most of the time, I'm trying to think of all the grease they cook stuff in. Yuck!
  • I don't like McDonalds or any of the fast food places, so no. I do find the game interesting though. If you want to play why not get a coffee or something like that.
  • I love that game I always convince myself I'm going to be a Huge winner.. Now I am starting to realize I will just be huge hehe So I am trying really hard to keep that in mind and say No to the french fries..
  • I can prob count on one hand the amount of times I have had McD's in the past 4 yrs or so. I stopped eating there after I watched Super Size Me ( unless I have no other option )
  • Haha, Born to Fly, unfortunately I think I missed the point of supersize me because all it left me feeling was "Dang, I could so go for some mcd's right now." Unfortunately, I have not reached a stage where fast food seems 'gross' to me. And fortunately or unfortunately, I don't drink coffee. However, my willpower has remained strong so far and I'm sure I can do it! Like Layla says, there is no chance of me winning, just a really good chance of me getting fatter!
  • I will admit to enjoying the game, but fortunately for me, I hate McDs food. Sometimes I'll drop in and get a diet soda just for the game piece, but other than that I stay away.

    I still get the cravings for fast food sometimes, But usually it's Culvers. I feel a little bit better about eating there ( even tho I prob shouldn't ) Mc'D's never left me feeling full, just still hungry after consuming prob 700+ calories in a meal.
  • I think there's nothing I could ever watch that would make me think fast food was gross. I think it's good to partake in things you crave SOMETIMES. That being said, I haven't been to McDonald's in years. Not because I don't like it....but because there's not one here, and when we go out of town to shop or whatever, we like to go to sit-down type places.

    But sometimes...you just want some fries!!! So yes, I DO indeed feel McDonald's cravings when those commercials are on...
  • play proper monopoly at least it wont tempt you to go to mcdonalds!....
  • have you guys seen that You Tube deal with the McDonalds being 4 years old and still looking the same? There are some threads on it somewhere around here but I couldn't locate them. I am a FAST FOOD JUNKY...like Mindy...thought there was NOTHING that would make me think "eww" about McDonalds, but that video did it for me. Now I just go to burger king or culvers instead! haha! BUT, I'm working on it. I CAN'T wait to be one of those people who wrinkle their nose to fast food and really mean it!
  • My husband is obsessed with McDs mononpoly too, so as a comprimise he goes and gets a large coffee which still gives him the pieces.

    I know for a fact that I will NEVER be able to wrinkle my nose at fast food and really mean it....*sigh*
