"Hi, my name is Windy Challey for Games of Berkeley and this is about fingertip travel window bingo. Most bingo sets come with one of two kinds of cards. This one here is made to be disposable and is marked up with an ink pen or a blotter and then it's disposed of once the game is over. There's another kind of bingo where the board is made of a hard quality cardboard and the numbers are marked off with little coins so that you can reuse your bingo board later. But if you're traveling, the best reusable kind of board is a fingertip board. It's especially good for bus trips and car trips. You can buy it in packs of ten for smaller family groups or packs of twenty or fifty for larger bus groups. And what you do is as the number is called, you just close, you start with all the windows open, and when the number is called, you close the window that was called. And that's how you mark your bingos and you can reuse the set over and over and no jiggling is going to disrupt your board. When you use a set like this, instead of a bingo cage with balls, you normally use a deck which has the same number of cards as there are balls in a bingo set, B I N G O, 1 through 65. So you would just use this deck, you'd shuffle it and then you would draw a card, whoever the caller would be and say O-65 and then if the person have that, they would shut that window that way there's no balls to go flying around your bus or your car and you have some secure windows that can be reused over and over again. And that's shutter cards for bingo."
