Join AQS. My savings every year more than pay the $25.00 membership not to mention what AQS gives you for being a member (magazine, discount on AQS shows/products). So it's not that limiting in who can get it.
So the JoAnn's card would cost me $25 a year for membership in an organization that I have no other reason to join (AQS)? Thanks, I'll pass. To get the card, you have to be a member of a professional organization or guild, or a reseller with a vendor's license. I call that limited.
Are you somehow connected to JoAnn's?? Just curious because you seem to have all the answers on this subject.
Ghost, are you a member of any local guild of any type? I ask because I qualify for the VIP card 3 or 4 ways, I just happen to use the ASG one because it gets sent to me without me asking for it.
I am an ASG member, I am a small biz owner, and I am a member of a local guild that provides membership ID cards with expiration dates. This ID card allows members to qualify for the VIP. I think they also offer VIP to teachers, but I don't recall that you are a schoolteacher...
If you're not part of a local guild, I can't offer any other suggestions, but just wanted to throw out that it's not limited to just professional organizations.
