To Pool or Not to Pool?

June 16th, 2014 at 05:38 pm

The season pass which starts today at the municipal pool costs $180 for a family membership. DD is very eager, but we can also spend $14/day for one parent and her. It's a close call, but I think we're going for it. I'd like us both outside more all summer, and this way I won't have the cash hesitancy. I'm always grumbling when we go for 45 minutes or less, but with the membership, we could go all the time.

I guess if we're going to buy one, today is the day.

A small but nice snowflake floated into the mailbox as our insurance finally reimbursed DH's flu shot. I'll drop that $30 in the bank on the way to the pool.

It's was a World Cup dominated weekend here, despite England's loss, we enjoyed the "footie" very much.

Not much other spending, but we need to watch the grocery budget a bit more.

    I would do it. My girls seem to have outgrown the pool, but we owned one for a few summers and it was great to go out often and cool off. She will remember the summer she went to the pool often!

    We did not get a pool membership given wheat our summer looks like, and I will admit that I do miss it.

    Funniest thing I saw re: World Cup was Pasta and Pizza 2 and Fish and Chips 1

    Yep, I did it. After two hours in the water now, I'm really tired, but it was nice!

    I buy a few memberships so when I go for 2 hours i don't feel bad too.

    I wish our local pool had season passes. It's 110 per month here! We haven't been to the pool since the prices rose. We used to go every single week, rain shine, winter or not. Since they literally doubled their prices in one season, we haven't gone swimming at all.

    I'd go for the pass too if I thought I'd go often enough.

    It was really fun. It's stormy today, but I think we'll go again by the end of the week.
