Monday, July 20, 2026, is a day to play with a bit of restraint in Monopoly GO. Bart's Treasures is due to open at 4:00 p.m. ET, and that changes what's worth chasing beforehand. It's tempting to burn rolls on whatever banner is sitting on the screen, but you'll get more out of the day by banking dice, clearing Quick Wins, and grabbing free shop rewards. If you're also trying to finish an album, keeping an eye on Monopoly Go Stickers can matter just as much as hitting one more low-value milestone.

Bart's Treasures needs patience

The new dig event has 20 boards, with the biggest prizes held back for the later stages. Players can earn dice, sticker packs, cash, a shield skin, and a Wild Sticker Pack at the end. The headline total is around 4,750 dice, though that doesn't mean every player will come out ahead. You'll need a healthy pile of pickaxes, and the actual total can swing a lot depending on board layouts, double tiles, and lucky helper reveals. A rough minimum may look manageable on paper, but planning for 350 picks or more is far less risky if you want a real shot at clearing the whole event.

Where the pickaxes come from

Treasure boards don't usually hand out enough tools to carry the run on their own. Most picks come from the banner event, short tournaments, daily tasks, and milestone rewards. That's why Whack-a-Prize, Krustyland Carnival, and Springfield Monorail are worth checking, even if their rewards don't look amazing at first glance. A tournament milestone with pickaxes can be more useful than a small dice payout today. Some players also choose to buy Monopoly Go Stickers when an album deadline is close, but it's still smart to check whether the next in-game milestone gives enough picks or dice before spending heavily on rolls.

Old event names are causing confusion

Okily Dokily Garden, Diddly Slopes, and Bounty Barrels are still turning up in searches, but they shouldn't be treated as live events unless they appear in your own game with a countdown timer. Okily Dokily Garden ended on July 15 and was a pickup-based banner event, while Diddly Slopes ran earlier, from June 30 to July 2. Bounty Barrels belongs to the archive for now. Old milestone charts can be handy for comparing formats, yet they won't reliably predict a returning event's rewards. Scopely changes point targets, prize totals, and event lengths all the time.

How to dig without wasting picks

Once Bart's Treasures opens, slow down on each board. Look at the shapes still missing and rule out spaces that can't fit them. Long objects can sit horizontally or vertically, so don't dismiss a section too quickly. A loose checkerboard approach can help locate bigger pieces, although it's not much use when a one-tile object is still hiding. If a helper clears extra squares, great, but don't build your plan around it. Roll at modest multipliers when the board offers useful targets, push harder only near worthwhile pickaxe milestones, and leave weak rewards alone. That's usually how players keep the event from turning into a dice drain.
