It’s a gas, gas, gas giveaway on Game Show Network

bingo.jpg   Want to win gas for a year? Either spend a buck on a lottery ticket or tune in to Game Show Network (GSN) starting Monday.
   “Bingo America” is giving viewers a chance to win $500 gas cards or free gas for an entire year during its “Bingo’s Big Gas Giveaway” event from June 23 to July 7. Here’s all you have to do:
   Watch “Bingo America” at 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and win the following day by calling in to GSN Live and reciting the winning pair of Bingo Bonus Numbers from the previous night’s episode (Fridays’ numbers are good for Mondays’ call-in). The first person to call in at noon to 1-877-7-GSNBINGO with the correct numbers will win a gas card with $500.
   Another way to win is to download at least one free “Bingo America” game-card a day for any five days during the two-week promotion. Everyone who does so will be entered for a chance to win free gas for a year. The grand-prize winner will be announced July 8.
   At-home players can download up to 10 sets of free “Bingo America” game cards, giving participants as many as 60 chances to win cash prizes every episode. Simply go to www.GSN.com/bingo to get in on the game.

   The usual payout for those who play along and win is $50.  

   To play along, simply go to www.GSN.com/bingo to get your free downloadable “Bingo America” game cards. And tune in to GSN (channel 116 on Dish Network, 259 on Cox Digital Cable, 309 on Direct TV) at 7 and 10 p.m. Tuesday to play along with the on-air contestants as everyone goes for Bingo.  

   The “Bingo Bonus Numbers” are located on every downloaded bingo card and give viewers an extra chance to win during the bonus round at the end of each episode.  

   Those who do win at home have one day to submit their prize claims at www.GSN.com/Bingo.   Good luck, and have fun.
