Mariano's Monopoly Game - Rare Pieces

Mariano's is having a collect and win Monopoly game much like Jewel had had last year. Other regional grocery stores are participating in the same Monopoly game including Pick'nSave, Rainbow, Copps, and Metro Market. While the chances to win a big prize are slim, it's still fun to play these games.

You can collect all the pieces and glue them to your board, but to make it easier, it's best to know which pieces are the rare ones. For each prize there is one game piece that is hard to get. For the big prizes, there are actually 2 game pieces that are hard to get. I did a little research and thanks to Patty over at GreenBayConsumer.com, here is a list of the rare game markers:

A 606
B 603
C 599
D 593
E 588
F 584
G 582
H 577
I. 575
J 570
K 567
L 560
M 557
N 555
P 550, 551
Q 543, 544
R 538, 540
S 532, 534
T 527, 530
U 522, 524
V 518, 519
W 514, 515
X 508, 511
Y 501, 505

The Monopoly game runs through August 29th so there is still a lot of time to shop and collect tickets. For a list of the odds of winning for each prize check out gsngrocers.com.

  5. A colleague and I had been playing the game since it started... He was trying to win one of the vacations and I was targeting the $30 thousand dollar kitchen make-over. Needless to say, neither he nor I won anything.

    In fact, I just checked the Mariano's monopoly game winners site and as of 8/24/2012, no one in the downtown Chicago store (on Randolph street, Chicago, IL 60601) has won anything.

    To me that just sounds mathematically impossible... Have we been had?
