If you think of the company "LA Fitness" (shouldn't it have a capital F?) as a single entity, then it should use the single form of the verb.

Doesn't it?

Don't they?

Thanks Ms. Grammar Geek but I still don't get it.

Is it doesn't or don't and what's the single form of the verb? Don't?

What if the sentence is changed to:

Don't LA Fitnesses send you coupons or advertisements?

Would that be correct?

I think of LA Fitness as one organization. I would use the singular. Doesn't it [LA Fitness]... ?

But when we use 'I' it's usually with a 'don't'? Why's that?

eg. I don't like it, I don't think so?

I is obviously singular, right?

With verbs, you have person and you have plural/singular.

First person singular: I First person plural: we

Second person singular: you Second person singular: you

Third person singular: he, she, it Third person plural: they

The only one that is different is third person, singular.

I do

You do

He/she/it do
