I have done a bingo for the last three new seasons. I have the new products displayed, and any discontinued items. I also make refreshments ahead of time. Earlier in the week I did this, and made 5 of the new Seasons best recipes. Then, we just play some bingo games, and of course give out PC prizes. It's a lot of fun; something different from a show. My attendance has grown with each one I've held.
You can type in 'printable bingo cards' into your internet search, and several sites will come up. I printed some cards on cardstock paper, they're kind of small (4 to a page) but they do the trick. I'm all about budget friendly!
I always tell my guests it's like my 'guest appreciation' party. I love to give out prizes, & everyone has a great time!

I tried bingo at my last show and it went horribly. Everyone was so focused on getting a bingo that they werent listening, and kept interupting me to ask if i had said "-----". It was really distracting and the show barely made 150 with 7 guests. It was a let down because i spent so much time. Just be leary. I also found that i was focusing too much on what was on the bingo cards. It was rediculous.

I just asked someone in my cluster (another Director) and she uses PC Dollars as prizes to use towards gifts
