If you are thinking of losing weight by joining a gym, here is some good news for you. True Fitness is having a crazy promotion through MyStyle that will be ending on the 30th April 2009. I only got to know about this accidentally while doing some random search on health, exercise and gym.

Currently, I am paying RM160 not including 5% government tax per month. So, this latest promotion came as quite a big shock to me. Here goes.

Only RM88 for a 2 months Membership, not including 5% government tax. The normal price would be RM798, as stated in the MyStyle website.

True Fitness promotion details

A) Promotion #1
To enjoy a 2 months membership for only RM88:
SMS ‘my111 truefitness‘ to 33365.

B) Promotion #2
To enjoy a free 14 day membership & a 1 week Bikram Hot Yoga passes:
SMS ‘my365 truefitness‘ to 33365.

Now, the terms & conditions part and some bad news. Firstly, the dateline is 30th April. That means another 4 days left before this promotion expires. Secondly, you must be a first time visitor to be entitled for anyone of these promotions.
UPDATE: This promotion has been extended to further notice due to overwhelming response.

I will try to get my girlfriend to sign up for this promotion. Since she’s been complaining about her weight lately and it would be nice to have someone accompany me working out for the next two months until my 12 months contract expires.

If there was a law persecuting blog owners of “blog negligence”, I would have been thrown into jail and/or fined.

Two weeks ago, I went to the PC Fair at KLCC to get myself some tech gadgets — RAMs, external hard disks (one for myself and another for my brother) and a mouse. The RAMs were for office use. The external hard disk is because I can no longer tolerate the lack of space of my existing drive and constantly repeating these 6 steps to increase hard disk space. Lastly, the scroll wheel on my mouse stopped functioning just days before the event.

Add that all up and I had a perfect excuse to go for the event. After my girlfriend found out that I have been to the PC Fair and back without even mentioning it to her, she asked me jokingly if I was there to check out the booth babes.

Now, this is a trap question. Whatever answer I give can and would be used against me. If I answered “No, I was not there to check out the PC Fair booth babes”, she would never believe me. If I answered “Yes”, well…

I ended up choosing to act stupid and answered, “What booth babes? I was there to get some tech gadgets and did not see any of them. Must have been the economy.” Of course, that was not a correct answer. Just do a quick image search on Google for the term PC Fair and you will see more pretty (judgmental) booth girls than tech gadgets.

What would you have answered?
