Gym a Joke

So a while back I posted wondering if a gym membership was worth it. We only have one in town and it is privately owned. I've been a few times back when hubby was doing PT for a knee injury and it's a pretty nice Gym. So I decided that it would prob be worth it since they have child care and I have a toddler. They also have a climbing gym and I LOVE rock climbing. Well I went in to talk to them before Christmas and they had some very interesting things to tell me.

I couldn't buy a year membership until the first of the year because several things were changing. Those changes are:
1. Child care is now $10 a month extra and the hours are changing. 6a-6p M-F, 8a-noon Sat, Closed Sun.
2 The climbing gym is $20 a month extra and they are no longer offering belay services so you have to have another person with you who also has to be a gym AND climbing gym member.
3. The price is going up from $45 a month to $55 a month. So add on child care and climbing and I'm looking at $85 a month!!!
4. They are no longer offering a discount to local law enforcement or their families (they used to give us 10% a year membership)

Needless to say, I did not sign on the dotted line. They are building an Anytime Fitness in town that will be opening this spring so maybe I'll join there before next winter (after the "new gym" rush).
