BUDGET restaurant-goers are loving this year's McDonald's Monopoly game - which features free prizes for those who take part.
The game lasts for six weeks, ending October 18, and offers gifts to those who collect stickers off the chain's menu items.
When you buy items from the fast food giant, you might find hidden prizes on menu items in the form of stickers.
Some of them are just free food items, and others are huge cash prizes and free cars.
There are also nine rare stickers - these are the ones you need to get the top prizes.

They're always the same every year, and they include Mayfair (dark blue sticker) and Bond Street (green sticker).
The top prize in the 2023 McDonald's Monopoly is £100,000 in cash.
Other big prizes include a MINI electric car, a £2k holiday with TUI and a Nintendo Switch from Zavvi.

Whenever you find a sticker it's worth entering the code into your McDonald's app to see what you've won.
You can also find a Double Peel this year which hides extra stickers inside the app, so it's important you check in your findings as soon as you get them.
We explain how this works here.

Rare Monopoly pieces
This is for all you competitive players - they don't come around often.
If you manage to find one of these, make sure you keep hold of it as the remaining stickers in the set will be much easier to find, giving you a good chance of winning the prize for that set.
The list of rare McDonald's monopoly pieces are:
Dark blue: Mayfair
Green: Bond Street
Yellow: Coventry Street
Red: Strand
Train stations: Liverpool St Station
Orange: Marlborough Street
Light blue: Euston Road
Pink: Northumberland Avenue
Brown: Old Kent Road
If you find Bond Street, for example, you could win the electric MINI car, so keep a look out.
If you're planning to head to your local restaurant, make sure to have a look what's on the menu.
