How do you get a good 24 hour fitness deals membership?
Not sure if they offer this anymore but I was able to buy a lifetime membership by paying three years upfront (appx. $900 at the time). Granted this was probably 10 years ago when they were expanding rapidly, so they may have been using that as a way to finance their expansion? At the end of the three years, all I had to pay was $24 per year for the rest of my life. Ironically I haven't been there in years because CrossFit has become my workout of choice but I still renew every year.
This is my real-world hack to save on the SuperSport membership.CostCo sells 2-yr 24 hours fitness membership for $300 which translates to $12.50 a month. Note that this only applies to the 'Sport' gyms of 24 hours fitness.

Alternatively, go to the 24 hours fitness web site and select a gym in your area that offers the cheapest membership for their 'Sport' gym. I got mine in Mountain View for $35 a month.
Once you got your 'Sport' gym membership, wait for a week or 2 (may not be necessary) and ask the membership department that you want to upgrade to SuperSport. They will tell you that they have a deal where you upgrade for just $10 a month.
I ended up paying just $45 a month for a SuperSport (all locations) membership. I know some people who actually pay for $60+ a month for it.

The best advice: Be prepared to walk away. The more resistant to their sale pitches, the more likely you'll get a better deal. I kept telling one person no, and then they brought over a supervisor to knock down the price for me. I was at the 24 Hours Fitness for over a half hour talking with people, so be prepared.I actually ended up going with a different gym, but it was amazing what happened when I resisted their sales tactic.
The contracts are highly negotiable. I was able to work my way up to a three-year deal for my wife and myself, with a handful of personal training sessions for each, for about $6 a month each. Be prepared to go big and pay upfront.
My sister was a 24 member one summer and then quit. We then received a promo in the mail asking her to come back for $15/mo for Sport gyms. I took it in and they let me use it instead of her. Then I used the $10 upgrade to Super Sport (all gyms) and pay $25/mo. Not sure if the deal is replicable though.
