It worked on me

So, I have to give McDonald's marketing department props for two reasons.

1. I'm a sucker for the annual Monopoly game and find myself there whenever in need for some fast food when the game is going...even though I think several other fast food hot spots are better.

2. Their $1 any-size soft drink promotion has me there much too often. My "going out" budget column looks a lot like this:

Description---Amount
McDonalds--$1.06
McDonalds--$1.06
Cheddars--$30.00
McDonalds--$1.06
McDonalds--$1.06
McDonalds--$1.06

Pathetic.
