So Bally fitness in Orchard Park is closing and want to find out where everyone else in the area goes and what the membership costs are . I know theres a BAC across Union I’m gonna stop in there this week to see how it is . This really sucks I pay less than $100 a year for my current membership which is how much most people pay for 3 months . Thanks for any info . ---

I currently am a member at Fitness Factory at Southgate, its never packed and its real clean, unlike the ballys in OP that place smelled. ---

I also belong to Bally’s. Got a lifetime membership on ebay for $500 and it is like 120 a year of something and with your $250 flexfit debit card you can pay for two years plus every year which is sweet. From what I heard, not sure if it is true, they may only be closing temporarily for the health department. That building is discusting and needs a total makeover. ---

I realize this might be a little more of a haul for you, but, check out planet fitness in williamsville on sheridan drive, it’s open 24 hours monday through thursday and has a great membership package for $20 a month. Really laid back place, there is also a prepaid membership for 18 months and it works out to be $11 a month when all is said and done. EDIT: they have a 99 for twelve month prepaid membership until the end of the year. [http://www.planetfitness.com/](http://www.planetfitness.com/) [http://www.planetfitness.com/Williamsville/?s=1134&c=10145&x=0](http://www.planetfitness.com/Williamsville/?s=1134&c=10145&x=0) I think world gym in Hamburg offers the same deals as well seeing as they are owned by the same people. ---

Woah really why is that Bally closing… is the one in Amherst safe? (that is my current gym) If you a south towner I would try to get in on a deal at BAC, I left BAC for Bally had a pretty sweet deal there but liked the atmosphere of Bally a little better. ---

> [@93dx--hatch](#): > > Lol at planet fitness, let’s drive 25 minutes to go to the gym. It was merely a suggestion for those who might want to pay a little less for the membership, again why I suggested World on Camp Road since that will be closer and has the same deals.
