I just got some junk mail with a picture of some go fast car parts on it so I had to open it instead of burn it. It turns out that I have been chosen and have 10 day to respond so I can be a "charter member" of the N.S.M.C. and for about one buck a month (Im sure they want a lifetime subscription payed all at once) I can receive "FREE" car parts, rims, tools ect. to test and keep.
Oh, and if I join now I will receive my choice of a neat Cool Touch Soldering tool, 40 buck in gas rebates or a fancey keychain...What The F...
Has anyone here ever joined one of these goofy things?

They almost convinced me to join with the window sticker that proudly displays my membership, the free note pad with their logo on it (all 10 pages), and the fact that my "Membership Card" will have what looks to be the close up picture of the cowl, fender, hood on a flamed 40/41 ford.
 
Yeah, I've gotten that twice in the last couple of months. I keep the notepads but toss everything else.
 
I just got it yesterday in the mail too, Tossed it. Didn't keep anything. I did notice something in small print about some of the dues going to a magazine subscription.
 
I belonged to that club, it's a joke. I wrote to them and ACTUALLY told them what to do with their membership, but they keep sending me the magazine.

Hey Eric where have you been hiding?
Been down to the yard lately?
 
Got into that a year ago. They keep wanting you to get a
lifeime membership. It is a joke let the membership go.
Not to impressed with the whole thing.

Somebody must have bought the list.

The notepad is cool

If I test products I get to keep them (Yeah right)
 
Yeah I got one of those in the mail too. But it sounded way too much like a similar deal I got into several years ago involving camping / backpacking. I was supposed to be a "field tester" for all kinds of new camping and backpacking products and would get to keep them when done...Never saw, tested, or got to keep the first product. Ended up with a magazine subscription, keychain, decal, and probably some other worthless crap...can't remember now. Oh yeah! they eventually sent me a notice saying they were discontinuing the "club", so there would no longer be a camping / backpacking magazine so they offered to fulfill my remaining subscription with a snow skiing magazine. Let's see.......Mississippi & snow skiing.......hmmm.

As others have said.......keep the note pad and trash the rest.
