Gyms

I joined 24 hour fitness yesterday. I sent out a feeler at work to see if they offered us discounts and to see how much everyone else was paying. Most people said they paid less (a lot less, in most cases) than $30/month, and their initiation fee was waived. One person said that she joined just a couple months ago and they no longer offered us a disount and it was almost $40/month. So I went in last night with the intention on not spending any more than $30/month, and fighting with them until they gave me what I wanted. Well, I found out that indeed, the last girl was correct and they wouldn't offer me anything lower. So finally I just signed up for the four-day-a-week pass, which was still $27/month and I can only go Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun. That's probably better, anyway, because it'll give me a strict time when I can go, and then on the other days and the weekend I can go do stuff outside. Stupid big corporations...Grrr.
