Employer Gym perks & conditions

I've always been more of a fitness class person instead of a gym rat. It has been annoying to learn that l could only apply the $500 employer fitness credit to an annual gym membership, but not fitness classes.

I'm feeling stupid that l just thought of this:Astonished Face
- buy a city recreation fitness pass, which includes gym
- submit for employer rebate
- ask city gym for refund ( mississauga recreation, will prorate and refund less $10)
- spend me refund on class of my choice, or keep it since l have my at home fitness equipment....

It would be a good time to check out gyms. A lot of gyms come with classes. For example, a few years ago I asked about the gym membership at a local community centre and the staff told me that all community fitness classes (i.e. archery) are included in the gym membership. You just have to sign up for them at the sign up time and you don't have to pay extra.

I checked this information out a few years back so it might be outdated.
