Alright, I did this once and it worked. Get $8 (something around there for pay by mail), put it in an envelope, and send it via mail. Here comes the tricky part, at least for me: Finding a way to send it without getting caught. Here's the scoop: Pretend you have a girlfriend (assuming you're male :P) or an important other and make a fake envelope addressed to him/her. Ask your parents if you can go to the a post box, and switch the letters without being seen, therefore sending the money for membership. I did this whole shinanigan exactly, and I must say it was quite fun; that is, if you don't want your parents nagging you about your significant other :P And of course, why not defy your parents with style; isn't that what childhood is all about? \
