McDonald’s MONOPOLY Menu 2026: Eligible Items, Prices, Calories, Prizes & How to Play

McDonald’s MONOPOLY is officially back in the USA for 2026. The promotion started October 6, 2026, giving customers another chance to peel MONOPOLY game pieces from eligible McDonald’s menu packaging and scan them in the McDonald’s app for food prizes, Rewards points, property pieces and bigger prizes.

One question matters before you order: which McDonald’s menu items actually qualify for MONOPOLY? McDonald’s now has an official Limited Time MONOPOLY Menu, so you do not have to guess.

Below you’ll find the official eligible food list, price and calorie references, the rule for drinks, promotion dates, prize information and the steps needed to play.

McDonald’s MONOPOLY 2026 at a Glance

Official McDonald’s MONOPOLY Menu 2026

McDonald’s has created a dedicated Limited Time: Monopoly Menu for the 2026 promotion. It includes breakfast sandwiches, Hash Browns, burgers, Chicken McNuggets, McCrispy Strips, World Famous Fries, fountain drinks, refreshers and McCafé drinks.

The food items listed below appear on McDonald’s official MONOPOLY menu.

MONOPOLY Breakfast Menu

Breakfast gives MONOPOLY players several lower-cost ways to get an eligible item. Hash Browns, Sausage Biscuit and Sausage McMuffin are especially useful choices if your local restaurant lists them at lower à la carte prices.

MONOPOLY Burgers, Chicken & Fries

McDonald’s MONOPOLY Drink Menu

The official MONOPOLY page lists several soft drinks, new specialty drinks, refreshers and McCafé beverages.

There is one rule you should not miss: McDonald’s states that only Large beverages are eligible for MONOPOLY Game Play.

That means seeing a drink on the MONOPOLY menu does not mean its Small and Medium versions qualify. If you are buying a beverage specifically to participate in MONOPOLY, select the eligible Large size and look for qualifying packaging.

Official MONOPOLY Cold Drinks

Official MONOPOLY McCafé® Drinks

For beverage eligibility, use the Large size. Prices shown where available are menu-price references rather than a nationwide McDonald’s price.

What Is the Cheapest McDonald’s MONOPOLY Menu Item?

There is no single nationwide answer because McDonald’s prices differ by location. Based on the reference prices above, breakfast items such as the Sausage Biscuit, Sausage McMuffin and Hash Browns can be among the less expensive MONOPOLY food choices.

Before ordering solely for a game piece, compare prices in the McDonald’s app at your restaurant. A price that appears at one U.S. location can be different at another.

Does Every Size of McDonald’s Drink Get a MONOPOLY Piece?

No. This is one of the most important details on the official MONOPOLY menu.

McDonald’s says only Large beverages are eligible for MONOPOLY Game Play. Small or Medium versions should not be treated as qualifying just because the beverage itself appears on the MONOPOLY menu.

When Does McDonald’s MONOPOLY 2026 End?

Game pieces are available with eligible purchases beginning October 6, 2026, through November 1, 2026, while supplies last at participating restaurants.

The digital Chance Card game remains available longer, through November 8, 2026. The final prize claim deadline is November 22, 2026.

Can You Play Without Buying McDonald’s?

The 2026 promotion is open to eligible legal residents of the 50 United States and Washington, D.C. who are 18 or older.

Players also need to meet the app, Rewards and registration requirements described in the official game rules.

What Are the Odds of Winning?

McDonald’s lists overall odds of approximately 1 in 5, with many winning outcomes connected to food prizes.

How Many MONOPOLY Codes Can You Enter Per Day?

The rules allow up to 8 game-piece code entries and 8 Chance Card Game plays per day, based on Eastern Time.
