America's Largest Operator of Commercial Fitness Centers Launches Trial Membership Promotion Exclusively on the Internet<<

Oh boy, now BFIT is an Internet stock. To the moon baby!

All kidding aside, IMO, this is one move that I think makes sense for them as it could "entice" memberships at a very low cost to them and they get the 4 up front (for 3 months) via credit card.

On the other hand, stock went down today I assume based on the bonds they just sold.
