Community Discussion Nxgen Fitness - Rate Increases

28 Upvotes

I got a notification that Nxgen is going up to $85/month, which is a $15 dollar increase per month.

Is anyone else getting sick of this? They do these aggressive hikes every year.

No one asked for a smoothie bar, or new machines after two years.

I get the sense that this is financing their other locations. I understand that businesses need to do this to a point, but NxGen? Let’s be real. It’s a pretty good gym, but it’s not luxury. It’s barely staffed anyway. And it’s also not like it’s open 24/7.

Sometimes I wish businesses would just stay in their lane. This feels greedy.

Commuting Portland to Boston

23 Upvotes

Does anyone commute from Portland to Boston? I’m curious of your experience using public transport or driving everyday and what you prefer? Of course we all get down to Boston for day trips, but I’m looking for experiences/issues with a regular commute. Maybe even average travel time or even how long it took for you to feel burnt out with the travel.

GoNetSpeed?

5 Upvotes

Looking for experience with GoNetSpeed, currently on fidium. Had a door to door guy come by and talk about it.

His main talking point was it being cheaper than fidium after the initial price inflates. Checked my own bill and their offers and at some point it will jump over their price.

Have you switched? or are already a customer? How is their service?

Anyone have luck selling suits to shops/tailors

Long story short, I made the mistake of buying a suit from Indochino for a wedding and it was a total mess. The suit itself is fine it just fits an entirely different sized person. Has anyone sold suits or jackets to local shops? If so, how was your experience?

I'm assuming Portland is close enough that some of you either live in Lewiston and commute or drive out of Portland to Lewiston sometimes. Would welcome your perspectives as well.
