Just call me "Mush"
Nov. 8th, 2007 04:28 pmI gave in.
Today I renewed my gym membership for $100/year more than I have ever paid. Bleh. Bleh. Bleh.
On the good side, it was $5/month less than was offered to my brother by the same gym.
I searched for local gyms that could meet my current needs. However, the only other local one (much cheaper, just as close) has their pool open too late in the morning for us to make it to work after the workout. *sigh* And I decided that going to the gym with T in the mornings before work is worth it.
The sales guy indicated verbally to me that month-to-month memberships have never been raised, unlike my year-to-year membership. He didn't actually offer me such a deal, but he brought up the subject. T has one of those. I ran into a website that indicated canceling month to month memberships from this gym is harder than turning off one's gas, water, electricity, cable, phone service, and security service. Having spent six solid months trying to get out of a previous relationship like that, I think that sticking to the year-to-year is the right idea.
I still feel like a schmuck.
