McDonald's Monopoly was first launched in 2005 and works in a similar way to the classic Monopoly board game.

It lasts for six weeks and will run until October 15 this year.

Customers collect game pieces when they buy qualifying McDonald's products, such as colour-coordinated road names or train stations.

Each piece represents a tile on the Monopoly board which you can pick up for free in the restaurant or play along online.

When you collect a set, you get a prize, and there are also "instant wins" which allow you to claim your goodies right away.

In order to get the biggest prizes players will need to track down the most rare stickers.

But can you play the game if you buy items on Maccies' breakfast menu? We explain all you need to know.

Can I play if I buy breakfast items?

Unfortunately, you will not be able to play McDonald's Monopoly on breakfast items.

You'll only find Monopoly stickers on a select number of main meals and treats served after 11am - when breakfast ends.

Depending on what item you buy, you'll find a double label with two pieces on it.

The Sun give the latest Mcdonald's menu a taste test

You will find McDonald Monopoly stickers on the below items:

  • Medium and Large drinks
  • Medium and Large Fries​
  • Three and five piece Chicken Selects​
  • Philly Cheese Stack​
  • Chicken Big Mac​
  • Large Salad Tray​
  • Cheese Sharebox​
  • McPlant
  • McSpicy
  • McCrispy
  • Mozzarella Dipper Bag​
  • 0.3 & 0.4 Blended Ice​
  • Galaxy Chocolate McFlurry and Twix Caramel McFlurry
  • Deli Wraps​
  • Veggie Wraps

However, if you ordered a medium or large carbonated soft drink or any item from the McCafe Iced Range, you would get the stickers if you ordered it with a breakfast item.

What can you win?

If you chose to take part in the game you will have to buy one or more of the McDonald's menu items listed above.

Some of the stickers you find will be more rare than other, and can increase your chance of winning a more valuable prize.

The Sun recently published an article about all the rare pieces, which you can check out here.

How to save at McDonald's

You could end up being charged more for a McDonald's meal based solely on the McDonald's restaurant you choose.

Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30% cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other.

You can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 at any time by filling in a feedback survey found on McDonald's receipts.

The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey.

You'll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer.

There are some deals and offers you can only get if you have the My McDonald’s app, so it’s worth signing up to get money off your meals.

The MyMcDonald’s app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android phones and is quick to set up.

You can also bag freebies and discounts on your birthday if you’re a My McDonald’s app user.

The chain has recently sent out reminders to app users to fill out their birthday details - otherwise they could miss out on birthday treats.

There are three different types of prizes you can win and they have been divided into three groups.

Instant win prizes

These are stickers which feature prizes you can get a hold off immediately in the store.

Peel off the sticker you get when you buy a McDonald’s item to see if you have won an instant prize.

But be aware there is an expiry date on which you can claim the instant prize so be sure to check the sticker so you don't miss out.
