    Fuck them. Next force gyms and newspapers to allow you to cancel with one click.

        Subscriptions with a dead man’s switch. If you don’t signal you want to keep the subscription after a few years, it’s automatically cancelled. You can sign up at the same price you left with if it cancels automatically.

            That would be fine with me too. I think every two would be my sweet spot if it was something like spotify.

      I’m so lucky, my gym membership auto cancels if I don’t pay in advance.

        Yep, my gym would love to cancel my membership. I also paid in advance: 2 years worth for a special limited-time promo. Now, I can renew yearly for $99. Only catch is, if it ever expires, it can’t be joined again. They will pry it from my cold, toned hands!
