McDonald's Monopoly
Everyone knows about McDonald's promotional Monopoly game by now. However, most people don't know the difference between a rare piece that could be worth thousands (Tennessee Avenue) and a basically worthless piece (New York Avenue). Basically, you need to collect all the pieces in a set to win. Sets consist of 2, 3, or 4 pieces. In every set, all the pieces except for one are easy to find. It's that last piece that is incredibly rare, and insures that loads of people don't win big prizes. But how do you know if the pieces you just pulled off of you large fry are valuable or worthless? I've put together a list of the rare pieces, along with their respective prizes:| Property | Code | Prize |
| Mediterranean Avenue | 801 | $50 |
| Vermont Avenue | 804 | $500 |
| Virginia Avenue | 808 | $1000 |
| Tennessee Avenue | 810 | $5000 |
| Kentucky Avenue | 812 | $10000 |
| Ventnor Avenue | 816 | $25000 |
| Pennsylvania Avenue | 820 | $50000 |
| Boardwalk | 822 | $1,000,000 |
| Short Line | 826 | $100 |
If you find that you have any of these pieces, you should search for the accompanying pieces in the set, as they will be relatively easy to find. Many are available on eBay for a few dollars. Good luck and happy hunting!
Purchasing memory cards is such a chore... You have to search online for prices, sort through which ones are legit, visit a bunch of shops,compare prices, finally buy your memory, and then fervently pray that the price doesn't fall in the next two weeks or so.
I've been f'd over by some ridiculous price drops in the past... especially this one time when I bought a Micro SD for my DS flashcard at what was apparently a bargain price, only to later see that it fell by $5 in a week.
