New Mensa Benefits

 

Vacation/Travel Planning

Planning a vacation -- to the AG in Denver or otherwise? Got a business trip coming up? Or just need to get away this weekend? American Mensa is partnering with the YTB Travel Network to provide an entire Web site, www.us.mensa.org/travel, to handle all of your travel-related needs. At this fully integrated site, you can:

-- Book your flight, hotel and car for any trip;
-- Search for cruise deals, international vacation packages and last-minute getaways;
-- Process online flight check-in;
-- Track traveler health advisories, passport requirements and airport delays;
-- Sign up for a weekly "deals & steals" e-newsletter;
-- Purchase flowers and concert tickets; and even
-- Set up a honeymoon travel registry.

If all else fails, you can amuse yourself reading about the great locations and keeping an eye out for "punderful" package titles like "Salmon-chanted Evening" (to Nova Scotia) and "Mexico: A State of Mayan."

Created to cater specifically to the needs of association members, the YTB Travel Network is a subgroup of a large, internationally known travel Web site. And here's a great side benefit: Not only can you take care of all your travel arrangements in one location, but every time something is purchased through www.us.mensa.org/travel, American Mensa receives a portion of the commissions paid. So when you need to travel, now you know where to start. Enjoy your trips and don't forget to save our American Mensa Travel icon to your desktop!!

PsySource

American Mensa announces PsySource, a new online directory that connects state-licensed mental health professionals with gifted people nationwide.  This is a new service from American Mensa, helping to fulfill one of the organization's primary goals - to identify and foster human intelligence.

While it is not a referral service or endorsement, the PsySource directory provides information about mental health professionals who perform
intelligence testing and provide support services to gifted people. The PsySource directory can be viewed by visiting www.us.mensa.org/PsySource

If you know someone who would be interested in listing their practice, please share this information with them.  Registration is quick and easy at www.us.mensa.org/PsySignUp.   State licensure will be verified for all mental health professionals listed.

PC Connection

If there's one thing most Mensans crave, it's their tech toys. Now American Mensa is offering a member benefit to get you those toys -- and all the gadgets that go with them -- for less.

Through its three sales companies and online storefronts, PC Connection offers more than 130,000 products from more than 1,600 manufacturers. Customers can save on everything from iPods to digital cameras to plasma televisions, from printer cartridges to network management and security software. Both PC and Mac products are available. The online store features easy-to-use search and sort tools and also includes a clearance section.

American Mensa is the first association to join PC Connection's corporate discount program and get up to 6 percent off listed prices. Members set up their own login under American Mensa's master account to take advantage of these discounts. Members get 24-hour access and secure ordering with shipping directly to their homes. PC Connection accepts all major credit cards.
