it's about time that they started offering the card only program. i hated having to offer the mvp card when i worked there because of how bad they were with getting people their magazines. it got to the point where we just had people come in whenever we got our new mags for sale for the month and give them their desired issue, because we knew they wouldn't get it in the mail. hopefully my employee mvp account still works, even though i haven't worked for them in a year, because i know for a fact i will never be suckered into buying one of those again.
