*PAYMENT PLANS

Starting February 1st, 2011

Same memberships with the same benefits, just broken into payments to spread out your investment.  There are no additional fees or finance charges for this option and your cashier can simply remind you when your next payment is due.

Your first $10 payment (or $5 for low-income) activates your membership for 30 days.  Should your membership become inactive due to a missed payment, you can reactivate at any time and pick up your payments right where you left off.
