im thinking of joining planet fitness but is it really $29 start up and $10 per month?

Your Membership Offer:

Start Up Fee: $29.00

Prorated Monthly Fee: $2.67
(Your monthly fee of $10.00 will begin on July 17th, 2011)

Prorated Annual Membership Fee: $7.22
(This amount covers you until October 1st, 2011 when you will be billed $29.00 for the following year)



Total Amount Due: $38.89


what does all of that mean? I've never joined a gym before

    The prorated amounts are for the remainder of the month if you join now. After you pay that amount ($38.29) then you will pay $10 a month every month. Every October you will be charged another $29.

    I would join now. You are only paying a portion of the membership fee that they renewed in October 2010. Think of all of the results you will obtain between now and when your yearly membership fee will renew!!
  • I've been a member for over a year. It's a pretty good deal, I originally had the $10 a month membership but then upped it so I can bring a friend (which is an option every time i go which is awesome) for motivation, company, support. I enjoy it, but just make sure you wipe down the equipment. My place the members are pretty diligent but I've heard it's different in different areas.

    I say join now, you'll always have a reason to put it off but once you sink money into it you'll want to get your moneys worth!
