Collect all three yellow properties in McDonalds Monopoly UK in 2023 and you’d have won a holiday worth £2,000 courtesy of TUI holidays.
Piccadilly (M516) and Leicester Square (M514) were pretty easy to get, but getting hold of the Coventry Street (M515) piece was a little trickier, as there were fewer of them available.

How Many Coventry Street Stickers Are There in McDonalds Monopoly?
In McDonalds Monopoly in 2023 there were 75 Coventry Street stickers attached to food and drinks packaging. There were also five more ‘Property Peel’ stickers that you could win via the app as part of the Double Peel game. That makes a total of 80 stickers, so there were £160,000 worth of holidays up for grabs!
How Rare is Coventry Street in McDonalds Monopoly?
Coventry Street is pretty rare. In fact, it’s the third rarest sticker in McDonalds Monopoly, after Mayfair and Bond Street. There are only 80 Coventry Street pieces, out of millions of stickers in existence.
As a rule, the higher the value of the property on the Monopoly board, the higher the prize value and the rarer the sticker is. The brown set is the easiest to complete, with over 2 million of each property, but the prize is much smaller – it’s just an Extra Value meal.
What Happens if You Get Coventry Street in McDonalds Monopoly?
If you have Coventry Street in McDonalds Monopoly, it’s definitely worth putting some considerable effort into getting Leicester Square and Piccadilly to complete the set. The other two stickers are very common, so you shouldn’t find it all that hard.
The cheapest way to complete the set is to hang around McDonalds picking up people’s old tokens – this is known as wombling. It’s legal, but it is kind of frowned upon. The easiest way is simply to buy more food.
Check out this list of McDonalds Monopoly menu items – I’ve listed them by price so you can see the cheapest items to buy with stickers. For less than £50, you would have a really high chance of finding the missing sticker that you need to win a holiday.
Can You Buy or Sell McDonalds Monopoly Stickers?
You may see people who are desperate for a Coventry Street sticker to complete the set taking to social media to beg for or buy the missing piece.

However, you really shouldn’t do this. The McDonalds Monopoly rules state that not only are you not allowed to buy or trade gamepieces, but that if your code is shared anywhere online it will become invalid.
Someone did try to sell a whole reel of unpeeled stickers on Gumtree, but the ad was taken down pretty quickly.
You could even have your prize stolen if someone uses the code before you scan it. This happened to one unfortunate McDonalds Monopoly fan who lost her chicken nuggets after sharing a photo to Snapchat.
To claim a prize, you have to hand in your paper ticket and also say which branch of McDonalds you got it from.
How to Win a Holiday in McDonalds Monopoly
In McDonalds Monopoly in 2023, if you completed the yellow set of properties then you would win a holiday worth up to £2,000. It’s yet to be confirmed if a holiday will be one of the prizes for the 2024 promotion.
Whenever you find McDonalds Monopoly stickers you should enter them into the McDonalds app. This year, you can do a Double Peel, which basically means you get extra digital stickers inside the app. It’s important that you do this as it gives you a much bigger chance to win.
And if you get a rare Coventry Street McDonalds Monopoly sticker, hold on to it tight!
