long ago, i made a small bag out of oxford cloth, with a draw string top. instead of painsakingly turn each tile over, we would finish the game by gently folding the board, an directing all the tiles into the bag.. then shake the bag. to play, just reach in and grab.

[This may be a bit of a generalization, but...] Most Canadians who have Scrabble boards keep their tiles in a Crown Royal bag, a purple felt drawstring bag with gold trim and a gold drawstring, and of course "Crown Royal" embroidered on it. I don't know if Crown Royal (Canadian whisky) is available in the US, and it's harder and harder to find a bottle with the felt drawstring bag these days - I still don't have one for my Scrabble board - it's relatively new, bought when I moved out of my parents' house - but my mom has one for hers!
