Every December, McDonald's throughout Russia hosts a Monopoly promotion. The point is to find winning stickers that come with some of the restaurant's products. For example, stickers can be received along with a Big Mac, a glass of coffee or a large portion of potatoes. The main prizes of the promotion are an apartment in Moscow, a car, a million rubles and tickets to the semi-final of the World Cup. The Village talked to last year's Monopoly winners about how their lives changed after winning and what it's like to win a million by buying a cappuccino.
Vitaly Istomin
37 years old, chef
1,000,000 rubles
I can’t start my day without cappuccino and that’s what I most often buy at McDonald’s. Like all normal people, I didn’t believe that I would win. I bought coffee, took it off, looked at it, and moved on with my life. Last October, I was driving to work and was running late, but I ended up stopping at McDonald's for a drink. I tore off the sticker, and it said: “Instant win - a million rubles.” The first thing I did was post a photo on Facebook with the words “The Universe smiled on me.” Later I thought that this was some kind of nonsense and, most likely, the winnings were not real, but potential, and I would have to do a lot of things to get the money. Since childhood, I’ve gotten used to not rolling my lip, especially if there’s a chance of losing, so after three hours I deleted the post from Facebook so as not to scare away my luck. And when I received the money three months later, I quickly got used to the idea that I was a millionaire and forgot to brag to my friends.
I put that sticker in my wallet, later scanned it, made a copy and wrapped it in 20 pieces of paper so as not to lose it. I didn’t feel like a millionaire, but I was hooked. I also thought that it would be more fun to win a million dollars rather than rubles. A million rubles is an amount that is not enough for a super-large purchase, but it’s a pity to spend on small things, so I didn’t have any plan on where I would spend the money. As a result, I went to Cyprus, bought 60 thousand worth of clothes and spent a little on small things. A year has passed and I have about half of my winnings left.
I used to go to McDuck every morning before work. The coffee there is of average quality: not great, but not bad either. Moreover, it is fast and on the way. Sometimes I had a snack at McDuck in the evenings - most of all I like the spicy Gourmet burger. In general, McDonald's has ideal food: unhealthy and very tasty. I am a cook, but I love food at McDonald's - there is no dissonance: chefs, in principle, rarely prepare healthy food, usually the other way around.
There are three people in all of Russia who won a million rubles with one sticker last year - the operator told me this over the phone. I also accidentally found out that one of the winners was from Kaliningrad, because they first sent me his application form to fill out. My victory is incredible luck, it happens only once in a lifetime, but still, why was my luck, my only opportunity, not for a million dollars, but for a million rubles? I never participated in lotteries, but after this incident I believed in them.
I generally consider myself lucky. One day I was late for the metro, all the trains had already left, and I stood on the platform with an upset face. The train arrived, but the doors to the carriages did not open. Then I asked the driver to give me a ride a couple of stations, and he gave me a ride in the cab. In my personal rating, this kind of hitchhiking is the second success in life after winning a million.
This year I was busy with work, and I also live in another place, so I completely forgot about the promotion. Just about three weeks ago I remembered and thought: “Damn, maybe I would have won this year too.” After that, I even went to McDonald’s several times on purpose, but I didn’t come across anything worthwhile. I'll try again next year.

I was never lucky in competitions, I never won anything and generally thought that it was all a lie and a deception. Yes, I never participated, only sometimes I bought lottery tickets at Sberbank. I had never even heard of Monopoly until my husband and I took the kids to the mall for a holiday last year. They were taken to the children's room, and they themselves went to the food court - to McDonald's. There I noticed a stir around the action - some boys were actively asking everyone if anyone had any unnecessary stickers.
When we ordered food, my husband offered to buy medium potatoes, and I said: “No, give me a big one, we rarely come here.” And it was on this big potato that there was a sticker with the inscription “Travel from the tour operator TUI for two adults (and one child under 12 years old).” I still can’t believe that we won, because there were seven such stickers throughout Russia, and one of them went to us. Moreover, we had two more stickers with street names - we gave them to the boys who collect them.
Our friends, who were also sitting in the food court, did not believe us - they said that we were all lying and that this could not happen. But then we called the McDonald's hotline and TUI, where the win was confirmed. Then everyone started saying that McDonald's is a serious organization, but we still thought that we would have to pay extra for something.
The journey lasted eight days. Among the options to choose from, besides Sochi, there were quite decent: Croatia, Montenegro, Cyprus, Greece and Turkey. But since we could only go either in spring or autumn, we chose Cyprus in September. My husband has a birthday this month, and we usually celebrate it abroad - in a word, everything turned out very well. We were accommodated in a luxurious five-star hotel, and we really didn’t have to pay extra for anything, not even for a visa - I was surprised. The entire trip cost exactly 130 thousand rubles.
I have a negative attitude towards McDonald's because the food there is terribly unhealthy, but sometimes I still want it. My husband and I go there once every three to four months. I can’t say what I like most there, I just sometimes want to eat a Big Mac or a cheeseburger.
Among my friends, no one has won anything like this. I don’t know if they envied me or not, but no one voiced it out loud. But all my friends who know about my victory began to actively participate in Monopoly and other events. But no one won anything more than a thousand rubles discount at Eldorado.
Of course, after winning, I believed in miracles. No, I didn’t participate in other promotions, but I realized that it was really possible to win. I'm generally lucky in everything except lotteries. I have a happy life, a wonderful family, I have always worked where I liked. I want to participate in the new Monopoly, but so far all hands have not reached.

Certificate for purchases at the Lamoda store for 120,000 rubles
I live in Odintsovo, and McDonald's is located right next to my house, so my friend and I go there often - literally every other day. Most often we drink coffee, eat potatoes and just chat. Last year a boy came up to us and asked if we had any Monopoly stickers. That’s how we learned about the action and immediately began to participate in it.
At McDonald's you can win instant prizes: a pie, a cheeseburger, potatoes, coffee, coupons for Yandex.Music, a million rubles, and so on. Such gifts are won with one sticker, but most often you come across street names. Each street has its own color. There seem to be seven of them in total: orange, blue, brown, green, purple, pink and red. If you collect three streets of the same color, you will win an apartment or a car. At the same time, two out of three streets are often encountered, and the last third is very rare, and everyone is hunting for it.
In two weeks, my friend and I collected an impressive stack of stickers - about a centimeter and a half - I kept them at home on a special shelf. And then one day I looked at my stickers and realized that I have three orange streets. Of course, my friend and I thought that this was a scam and they wouldn’t give us anything, but it turned out that we won 12 coupons of 10 thousand rubles each at Lamoda. The winnings were divided in half.
Lamoda has low prices and good quality items, so we ordered with the whole family. I took for myself a white blouse with ladybugs, jeans torn at the knees, another pair of jeans, a pink blouse, a blouse with the Batman sign, T-shirts - in a word, a lot of things, I can’t even remember them all. We also bought boots for my brother and mother, and a jacket and T-shirt for dad.
After winning, my friend and I continued to go to McDonald's and collect stickers: we had hope that we would win for the second time in a row, but for this you need to be too lucky. And, of course, there were instant edible prizes.
McDonald's came up with a good promotion. It is clear that not every third person will win, but one in a million, but the system works: people really go to the restaurant more often. In addition, the promotion is held in the winter before the holidays, when everyone is in the appropriate mood and rest.
I don't think you can win Monopoly by cheating. You won’t be able to print the sticker yourself, because to confirm your win you need a unique code printed on the sticker. To win you only need luck.
I heard that in groups on VKontakte they exchange stickers and sell them, but I think there are a lot of scammers there. If you come across a rare sticker, why sell it for less than what you can get from the prize?
This summer, after passing my exams, I wanted to start earning money, so I got a job at McDonald's. Since then I've been working there five days a week and I love it, we have a friendly team. At work, I eat foods that we are allowed to eat - a Big Mac, a Cheeseburger, coffee, cold drinks and potatoes. But if you only eat this food, you can get fat, so sometimes I take lunch from home.
McDonald's employees are prohibited from participating in the action - I don't know why. But I have no desire, it seems to me that I won’t win anything. Of course, I come across stickers - I give them to a friend who plays.
