THIS CONTEST IS CURRENTLY OVER, AND COMMENTS HAVE BEEN CLOSED
As I previously mentioned in my post on Austin-area gyms, I’m a member of Planet Fitness. This is mainly due to its insanely low-priced membership fees (how can you beat $10?!). But today I received a letter in the mail informing me that because they’re opening new clubs in the area, they’ve sent all their Black Card members some free one-day passes.
Thus I bring to you the first-ever Shoestring Austin CONTEST!
THE PRIZE: One of my 6 one-day passes to Planet Fitness, to check them out for yourself
HOW TO WIN: Just write a comment on this post telling me what your fitness goals for this year are, and why you’d like to win one of the passes. If we get 6 comments or less, the first 6 people to post win! If we receive more than 6 comments, we’ll hold a drawing and randomly select winners at this time next week (i.e. Tuesday, August 24, 2010). Results will be posted here on the Shoestring Austin blog on Wednesday, August 25, 2010.
So get your comments on, post up to midnight on August 24, 2010, and tell your friends!

I was hoping for a list of free trial memberships across Austin as I just graduated and can no longer use UT facilities for free. Your post was just what I needed!
I’m also ridiculously frugal and subscribe to a myriad of awesome deal/coupon blogs, and I’m so excited to have found one that’s Austin-specific.
As for my fitness goals, I need to lose some serious weight. After being on some medication that caused me to gain over 35 pounds in a year and a half, I just want to get back to my old self again, and now that the medicine is gone, this is my chance… and my chance to do it on a budget!
I hope I get to try Planet Fitness out for free with this pass.
Thanks!
