Lad bought 25 large fries to test what he could win in McDonald's Monopoly

If you are a proper Maccies fan, there is nothing more exciting than ripping open a load of Monopoly stickers with the hopes of winning more than a fruit bag.

For those unaware, McDonald's Monopoly promotion gives you instant prizes like a free burger or chips - while other prizes require a collection of property stickers, with the big rewards ranging from £100k in cash to an electric MINI.

And one brave man has gone viral for splashing nearly £65 on 25 portions of large fries in return for 50 Monopoly stickers.

Josh Ryan - who started a McDonald's Monopoly series on TikTok - uploaded a video earlier this month, writing in the caption: "Buying 25 large fries to see how much I can win! Can't believe how much I won!!"

He was off to a good start after picking up his first portion of fries, peeling off a 40 percent code for Skull Candy headphones.

His second prize also came from his second portion, winning a 'personalised photo magnet'.

Not bad, not great either.

The third sticker was yet another prize, with a 10 percent discount code for ao.com.

But small prizes just kept coming, including, yep you guessed it, a McFlurry or a fruit bag.

Seriously though, if you go for the fruit bag you're probably a serial killer.

Josh also picked up six nuggets, a bacon roll, along with a hot drink.

Sadly the 100k was out of reach, but after picking up a lot of smaller prizes, the TikToker insisted: "Fries is where it's at."

Commenting on the post, one viewer suggested: "Don’t throw the stickers, scan them on McDonalds app, you’ll win there too."

A second added: "I won an xbox years ago. get all those fries in an air fryer and they will crisp right up!"

Meanwhile, someone else complained: "25 large fries not 1 of them actually full like always."

In another video, Josh was joined by a woman as the pair decided to spend more money on Monopoly stickers, as the caption read: "This is part three of spending money on McDonalds Monopoly to see what we win and today I spent £75, money's going up."

The woman joked: "Now, we should win £100k no?"

After spending £75 on the food, the duo only won two McFlurry or fruit bags (again), one apple pie or fruit bag and one small fries or veggie bag.

Better luck next time.
