How much do you pay for Gymboree class?

My MIL just signed up for 6 months and I want to make sure she is not overpaying.  Thanks!

Here in So. Cal it is $75 per month for one class a week. Way, way overpriced if you ask me.

It was $50.00 a month here a few months ago in FL

DS is not in a class but I just checked online out of curiosity and it's apparently $88/mo.

Its $89 a month in Chicago. I was going to renew this week but after seeing how much the PP pay, I'm cancelling.

I believe its $90/month in the Boston area, PLUS a $50 registration fee.

I got a groupon for a single month membership, and honestly the class just isn't that good. I get that they might be trying to teach/challenge the kids, but treating 2 year olds like 3/4 year olds just isn't going to help anyone.

$75/month in CA

Started out at $79 a month and now is $69.  Every location will be different based on COL and since it's franchised.

Gymboree here is $70/month (Northern Virginia/D.C.).

We do Little Gym, not Gymboree and that works out to $90ish a month but I liked it better.

Ready.....its $140 a month here.  I did it for the month of September because I got a groupon but I refuse to pay that much for 4 classes.

We go to JWTumbles, which is basically the same thing.  It's $95 a month here.

Really?  I have the exact opposite feeling.  I think we're going to be done with Gymboree when DD turns two because I don't think it's challenging enough for her.  All of the things they teach (high/low, stop/go, in/out, up/down) she already knows.  Other than that, they sing songs and do bubbles and a parachute.  I'm not sure how that's treating kids like 3/4 year olds.

that's why we quit - he gets more out of park play dates than he ever did at gymboree. it just wasn't challenging and it was crowded, chaotic, and expensive. and the teachers speak to the kids in a way that's really patronizing (at least, that's how ours was - like the pp said: they're franchised.)

I paid $69 a month. I canceled after two months because that is a lot of money! We had fun though.

Wow, Gymboree is expensive other places!! We pay $59 a month and there was no registration fee. We do one class and 2-3 open gyms a week so I feel it is worth it. My daughter loves it!

In Atlanta it is $80 a month.  I loved it when we did it through a Groupon.  Being around other kids really helped her learn to crawl/pull up/walk, but I just can't justify the cost.  I would love to do it mostly for the open gym time.  The class was good but being able to climb all over eveything would be awesome for her.

Mermaid, if you are going to the Gymboree near Decatur, you can do an option that is just Open Gym for $35/month. This is what we do right now.  We also did the groupon, but I couldn't justify $80/month.  I'm still debating whether we will keep doing open gym, or if we will stop for awhile and then pick it back up once the weather gets too cold to be outside as much. 

DS definitely gets as much out of open gym as he got out of the classes.

No way!  That is awesome.  I will have to check that out especially for the winter. PM me and maybe we can hook up at an open gym.
