Monopoly replaces cash with credit card
July 25, 2006 | Links
Cool - Monopoly has gone and done, what I think is, an incredibly cool thing. They have ditched the cash for credit cards. Each player gets a credit card and there is a machine that updates transactions as they take place. This removes the counting out your money nonsense and, more importantly, stops people from stealing your money when you go to the toilet.
Please note : I’ve not actually seen this for sale, don’t have a clue how much it costs. Would be interested if anyone else knows.

I’ve now seen it for sale. Woo Hoo. I seem to recall it was part of the new Simpsons Monopoly, but I’m sure it’s in other versions too.
