Guest general41391 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I know that they were at McDonalds in September, but how did you guys get so many??? Did you buy that much food?
Guest general41391 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 anyone want to share or is it a secret?
floridasun5 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I think everyone was sending away for them via mail requests.
Bestbuy7 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Mcdonalds had a giveaway for it first 100 customers, after seeing no one was buying their fries ..jk
carheel Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 i only had about 40.00 but i sent away for mine.
KhakiBoy Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 The secret is you can send away for game pieces. You just need to send a SASE. So $.74 for stamps plus the cost of envelopes. You'll get at least $1 and 1 in 3 chance of getting a $3 BBB. Think I might be doing that next year.

happyrat Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 Well this my sound gross, but I get mine out of the trash. I work at the airport, and people just throw them away. Did not worry about it to much this year, I mainly went for the free food. Last year I won 4 extra value meals, 30 free frostys. 5 free large sandwiches. Didn't spend a dime.
RossMAN Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 We received $265 Best Buy Bucks and it only cost us $111. We only ate at McDonald's twice, so that wasn't it. Send McDonald's a SASE and they'll mail you a FREE BEST BUY BUCK which is worth either $1 or $3. You also receive two McDonald's Monopoly game pieces with free food prizes, etc. There is NO LIMIT per household. Read this: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=14311

We mailed in 150 entries for the game pieces and receiving a total of $265 BB Bucks was great. :)
grapico Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 any idea if this will be available next year? if so I'll probably mail about 1000 of them to get 2000 dollars to spend, usually spend that much at best buy, and sure they will have stuff going on. edit, just read 300 per visit, so will do like you and do about 110-120 :)

I just hope they don't radically change the rules next year.
ebony0421 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I am already thinking about getting the BB bucks will help next year.
saturnboy01 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 If they do it next year I am sure there will be some things chaning. I hope I get some next year if they do it again!
Ez74 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 i guess it pays to read the fine print, but I just assumed you could only use 1 of the coupons ($1 or $3 BBB) per item
saturnboy01 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 i guess it pays to read the fine print, but I just assumed you could only use 1 of the coupons ($1 or $3 BBB) per itemThere was a limit on media items but other items there was a $300.00 cap.
RossMAN Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 There was a limit on media items but other items there was a $300.00 cap.Yep $300 per item per person. I was actually able to redeem $265 BBB but later changed my mind and used a 10% off coupon instead. So I got our BBB back and now I have to find a way to spend those.

tfinch2 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 Did somebody say Best Buy bucks? Man BB was crazy yesterday. Even after the sales people were still going nuts.
RossMAN Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 I still need to spend my $265 BBB ... life is tough
VonnegutFan Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 I still need to spend my $265 BBB ... life is tough Oh geez. :) Lucky you.

You pay $0.74 (two $0.37 stamps) and they mail you either $1 BBB or $3 BBB. Best part is there is no limit We paid $111 for $265 in BBB talk about a deal
