Gold’s gym - price haggling?

oparker20 asked:


I’ve been a member of Bally’s for almost 7 years. I complained about it for the longest time because I basically had to die to get out of the contract. But since that’s been paid off 4 years ago I only pay $15 a month (and that goes up like a dollar a year or something).

I’m thinking about joining Gold’s b/c it is 5 minutes closer to my house and also opens at 5 instead of 5:30a. I work out in the mornings before work so the extra time is really key. Also a lot of people from work go there but I’m not sure that’s a good or bad thing yet.

I’m wondering if you can haggle the price at Gold’s. I get the law enforcement rate so they’ll waive the down payment and then it’s like $39 a month. What are the odds I can get this down to something in the $20s? Otherwise it’s not worth it to me because I mainly run and lift weights at home and just keep the gym membership for bad weather and to get a break from running when I get sick of it a few times a year.
