Buy a large fry or a big mac and get a code to enter at http://www.playatmcd.com. They are giving away 50,000 PSPs. I know I will be eating more McDs for the next few weeks. Started 7/5 ends 7/25

I HATE SITES and auto maximize your broswer. In fact so much, I just alt-f4 and don't even bother with it.

edit: is there a way to turn that off in firefox? (me = n00b)

Pretty sure it's done in JavaScript so the only way to stop it would be to disable JavaScript.

EDIT: I just disabled JavaScript and the window doesn't even open.

Ahhh you are correct. You can win a PSP, PS2, PS2 games, or PSP games.

Better solution than mine, that's for sure. ;)

I won't be visiting McDonalds anytime soon because:

1. I care about my health

2. They embrace the thug culture. They won't get my business.

Nobody ever wins anything from McD contests except of small drink and small fries. Scam.

I saw a commercial about this on TV, so I went to McDonald's today and got a Big Mac meal. I even upgraded to large fries so I could get two codes.

I won a PSP game called Ape Escape: On the Loose with the code off the Big Mac. I have to send in the code with a form and they'll send the game in 6-8 weeks.

The print on the Web site is tiny and it was my first try, so I wasn't sure if it was for real... and I also thought I won a PSP system and not just a game.

Not bad. I'm gonna try again tomorrow! :D

It's not a convenient contest because you can't just peel a sticker and see if you win. You have to enter the code online and it asks a lot of noesy questions (name, email, phone) before it allows you to proceed.

I nearly threw the code away.
