"Great idea. Unfortunately, I signed up for an individual membership earlier this year. It took two weeks for the materials to be received. Make sure you sign up for at least two years. The savings are not significant in the first year."

Even if you go for a single year, you would still reap the benefits in the 2nd year. The 1st years's fee includes quite a large joining fee which you don't have to pay subsequently. It is cheaper to buy a 2 yr membership than to buy 2 x 1yr memberships, but not by very much

I still think that this was an inspired idea
