Looking for something fun to do this winter? Try ice skating! Today's Groupon is a 2-for-the-price-of-1 ticket to Veterans Memorial Skating Rink in West Hartford. The way Groupon works is that you buy the deal today but you have a year to use it. If you haven't checked out Groupon yet, you should.
Located at 56 Buena Vista Road in West Hartford, Veterans Memorial Skating Rink is a NHL-sized newly renovated rink that offers skate rentals, lessons, hockey programs, party rooms, food, and much more. There is also free wireless access for those parents or chaperones who don't want to skate.
If you are looking for free skating and free skate rentals, there is still one more day of ice skating at Bushnell Park in Hartford. The last day is January 6, and it is open to the public from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Peggy, Groupon is a great deal. I recently "bought in" to "The Body Shop", and purchased oil burners and scents fo my vacant homes! Some REALLY needed this!
Peggy - I guess I haven't been to your blog in a while. I LOVE your new signature. Very cool! I just joined Groupon, but haven't seen anything I like yet. LivingSocial is like Groupon for Fairfield County and I use them a lot. You might want to see if they have LivingSocial up your way, too.
Hi Joan - I love Groupon also and have gotten some great deals too. That's a great idea about your vacant homes.
Hi Gail - I also subscribe to LivingSocial (I guess I just love deals)! Thanks too for your comments about my new signature!
Peggy, makes me want to be closer so I can go ice skating. Love the groupon thing. I wonder if they have that closer to me?
Hi Christina - Groupon is in a lot of cities. You should definitely see if there is one near you. Last I heard, Google was going to buy Groupon so it is definitely not a local thing.
It is to bad that the rink was closed on January 6th. This seemed to be a very popular attraction, a bright spot for Hartford. Hopefully it will be back next year!
Groupon is awesome! I have been able to take advantage of their great deals several times. There is definitely nothing wrong with saving some money....especially right now.
