If you're looking for rare game pieces for the 2018 McDonald's Monopoly game, this page will be updated when the new giveaway begins.

When you buy participating products at McDonald's between March 29th and April 25, 2016, you'll have the chance to win thousands of prizes ranging from a million dollars cash to free food from the 2016 McDonald's Monopoly Collect-and-Win Game. (You can also play without purchase by mail).

If you're lucky enough to get a rare game piece from the collect-and-win game, you're all but assured of winning a prize.

Each set of Monopoly properties, which is made up of two to four individual "locations," has a single rare game piece; the other game pieces are common. The common pieces are a dime a dozen. If you have that rare game piece, you're set to win (don't fall for McDonald's Monopoly Trading Piece Scams!).

You don't want to accidentally throw away one of those rare game pieces. Each year, the collect-and-win prizes include a million dollars cash along with other fun prizes like cash, Super Bowl vacations, rides in a Cessna, free vacations, free gas, and more.

So before you trash any of your McDonald's Monopoly game pieces, be sure to check this list to find out if they are rare. If they are, prepare to celebrate!
