Thank you very much bal. I have an appointment on Monday afternoon and I will certainly ask if I can take the contract home.

I have been looking for a facility that offers a therapeutic pool and so far this particular facility is the only one that offers the right temperature.

I've been going to the YMCA where they have a wonderful therapeutic pool as well as therapeutic aquatic classes for the same price ($33) but further from my home. I need to find something closer to keep my auto insurance cost down.

I don't know if the facility that quoated me $33 and an appointment on Monday includes aquatic classes, but I will inquire about them.

At this time, I'm not able to use any other services and wonder if you think they negotiate their monthly prices?

Hello: You know I was watching tv, and it show'd how people need to bargin when they want something, specially if they feel they need to use something and will if the price is right for them. So, I would ask and let them know that you are on a particular type of budget and because of your situation you plan on using their facility on a continued base and why, and see if there isn't something more they can do with their price'ing arrangements for you, that will benefit your needs. All one can do is ask, but if they do please ask them if they would put that in writing and initial behind any changes made on the original contract and get a copy for you own records, even if they question your reason, say, well many people change positions and or other worker's might not get the way you are to pay, so if it's clear up front there won't be problems when there might be a posibility they themselves won't be there when your there and the other person might be.
Ask, ask and ask for discounts, don't know your age but often if one is a certain age or needs due to a disability there is a chance for lower rates there.
Please let me know how you come out.
