Sign of the times

A new version of Monopoly is being launched in the US this week featuring brand name tokens rather than old favorites like the boot and battleship.

The new tokens include mini versions of a Toyota Prius, a serve of McDonald’s fries, a cup of Starbucks coffee and a Motorola mobile phone.

Despite the presence of these branded items the new Monopoly is actually more expensive than the traditional version.

Guess that’s the price you pay for using premium brands.
