10 Days of Thanksgiving: Day 6

Today I am thankful for sites like Groupon and Living Social as they give me access to fitness studios at a very affordable price.  

I know this is a random thing to be thankful for, but I really do appreciate the deals on sites like groupon and living social. Right now I am enjoying a month of unlimited yoga at my favorite studio, Core Power Yoga.  I love this studio and the classes they offer so much but I do not love the price tag associated with being a member!  Thanks to groupon, I was able to snag an affordable 30-day membership and have been trying to get my bootie there as much as possible.  In January, I am planning to activate a living social deal for 10 fitness classes at another studio that is close to my house.

I love switching things up and trying new workouts so am thankful that I'm able to snag these deals when they come along. I have too many interests to commit to a membership at one studio so this is a great way for me to do some new things during the running off-season.

What are you thankful for today?

  1. Funny you mentioned that, as I just bought a Groupon for a bikram class! It's so much cheaper plus it gives me a chance to try out different places without the hefty price tag! I also just bought a haircut for a very reasonable price, since I haven't really found a hairdresser that I love yet, so we shall see how that goes! The other one I sometimes find good deals on is Zulily, although it tends to focus more on people with kids. However, you never know; I found a great deal on an Erin Chondrin planner there a few years ago!

  2. It is great that you have access to so many exercise classes! Groupon sounds like an amazing thing! I wonder if it would work in rural ND? May have to research that idea?

  3. I will have to check out the groupons and see the options that are available to me in my area! I still haven't done a real/official yoga class yet- must do that at some point. It's so nice to be able to score deals like this.

    Today I'm thankful for good neighbors; such a joy to have friends in our neighborhood. We take turns watching each other's houses, we hang out, and my favorite is the impromptu sidewalk and driveway chats.

  4. I stopped with Groupon after buying and forgetting to use!

    I'm thankful today for a lazy day where I can start to pull the house together for the holidays!

  6. I need to check out Groupon more often than I do. I always get overwhelmed by their emails so stop subscribing before wanting to try them again. Ha!

    I'm thankful for a healthy and happy pup! :)

  7. I've used Groupon to do some cool fitness classes over the years too :) I hate that my yoga place only lets new people use groupons though, ha ha

  8. I used to do a lot of grouponing and livingsocial :) Then I noticed I kept forgetting them and ended up losing out on the discount. That I can sleep in tomorrow! Been cramming in my schedule trying to make a living with small gigs. One more thing tonight after my part time thing and an thing between those two and then omg SLEEP.

  9. I really wish we had more opportunities for deals like that here! I've also loved having my intro barre membership this past month but after my month is up I will likely just do drop-ins as it's too hard for me to commit to going regularly when I have so many other fitness things I want to pursue as well!

  10. I've never used any of those sites, but I've heard really good things about the deals you can get.

  11. Funny you are mentioning this - I just purchased a Groupon for a local yoga studio...and am loving it!! I definitely would like to keep up doing yoga at least once weekly. It leaves me feeling so restored - and forces me to stretch out (which I am so bad about doing!)

  12. I love these sites too! I wish my local places ran deals on those sites but haven't been able to find any near where I could use yet! I do enjoy using stuff on them for traveling or meals out! I am contemplating joining the Y in the town I work now because I could get there over my lunch hour.
