Martin Lewis reveals the secret tricks to beat your family at Monopoly this Christmas - including the best and worst properties to buy Christmas is a time when people overindulge in panettone, drink copious amounts of mulled wine, and fall out with their families over brutally competitive rounds of board games.
Britain's best-known money saving expert Martin Lewis has shared a slew of genius tactics and brilliant Monopoly strategies to employ during your next festive family games' night.
The first tactic with Monopoly is to buy as many properties as possible in the early stages of the game, Martin said.
Those wanting to win should aim to purchase the three light blue cards which are The Angel, Islington, Euston Road and Pentonville Road, as these can generate the most money once hotels are added to them.
Martin said that it was also important to calculate the return on investment on each property, meaning how much you purchased it for versus how much you can earn back from rent.
