Dropped my $200 gym membership for a $30 planet fitness one

Was paying LA Fitness every month for 8 years because I liked the sauna. Got laid off in March and had to cut everything. Honestly, I'm lifting the same weights and saving $2,040 a year now. Anyone else make a switch they thought would be terrible but worked out fine?

Realized half the fancy stuff we pay for is just status not value.

Think about how much of the "status" stuff actually makes things worse. Like expensive watches that need constant maintenance or designer shoes you can't walk in. @christopher594 I realized the same thing when my buddy's $5,000 suit had a button fall off after one wear while my $200 one from a discount store lasted years. Sometimes paying less gets you better quality because the brand markups are covering advertising and CEO bonuses, not better materials or craftsmanship.
