I wish I had enough money for a real wax kit...

I've tried those and they're so useless. I buy Parissa sugar wax, and it's really good. I've tried other types and just hate them. With the sugar wax you need to warm it up enough so it spreads thin, but not so hot you burn yourself. But I've been really happy with it, using it like...10 years now.

you can boil some water and stick the wax(leave it in the jar) to warm up. so its like a jar of wax in a bowl of hot water. it works. i do it occasionally. i know it works with the sugar wax, dont know about anything else

$25 every two weeks. If you're a student it's even cheaper.

I love it. The classes are really fun (I'm addicted to spin now. The first class was so bad but after about 3, I was able to keep up with the regulars). The ladies section of the gym is nice too. Lots of variety as far as machines go and there are a ton of treadmills, stair steppers, bikes, etc. so nobody is ever left out.

I'm going to a spin class at 5:45 today if you want to come with and try it. :D

whoa, so many Nanaimo people!
I go to Anytime Fitness and have since the day it opened! It is super convienent for me because it
s 24hours and I work across the street and go after work and used to work 2-1030pm all the time. Kelly, the personal trainer who works there is supposed to be AMAZING. (She's my old trainers replacement... I just don't have the money to see anyone at the moment).
I pay $33/mo
Drop in I thiiiink is $5.50 if you go with someone who is a member??? (havn't taken anyone in a while)

It's super tiny though and my boyfriend doesn't like it because there's not a whole lot of machines he's used to working with. But worth it to check it out if you live in that neighbourhood.

And there's never any females there, and when there is, they're usually pretty out of shape or old and make me feel better about myself :shifty:

i pay month to month but i also signed up for 18months back in 2009 so it MIGHT be more now for new members.
but all my co-workers pay even less than me because they get the 'country grocer discount' that did not exist when i signed up :cussing:

For the self tanner lotion question: I really like the smell! I've used clarins and it was awful smelling, but I quite like this one. It's super moisturizing as well!

Anytime fitness is puttin out a deal in June for 3 months I can't remember the cost but it sounded like a good deal. I like that the tanning is only 25 a month too :)

Paige, were you at Westwood last night?
