Ski-Repair Services or $20 for $40 Worth of Winter-Sports Equipment and Apparel at Ski North in Wexford or McMurray
The winter blues settle in when people get sick of staying indoors, watching the same reruns, and knitting tiny mittens for their house centipedes. Get back to nature and out of that teeming lair of insects with today’s Groupon to Ski North , valid at the Wexford and McMurray locations. Choose between the following options: For $12, you get a ski- or snowboard-binding repair or tune-up (a $25 value). For $20, you get $40 worth of winter-sports equipment and apparel. Ski North readies snow traversers for icy plummets with clothing and gear from brand-name lines, while mending blades and boards in binding repair and tune-up services. Customers can secure their personal skis and boards with a binding repair, where a meticulous inspection and testing of binding ensures feet remain shackled in place during rides. A tune-up offers a choice of hand or machine sharpening that hones blades and levels the playing field when competing downhill or fleeing an aggressive pack of mountain goats as The Benny Hill Show theme plays in the background. Alternatively, guests can bundle within the snug fibers of a The North Face Denali jacket ($99–$160) or a White Sierra winter fleece ($35), or don a pair of Smith Optics ski goggles ($30+) to protect eyes when skiing or chopping onions on the slopes.

Witness the aesthetic potential of locomotion with today’s GrouponLive deal: for $12, you get one ticket to see the Black Dance Festival at the August Wilson Center for African American Culture (a $25 value).

Friday’s show features the hip-hop styling of Philadelphia-based Rennie Harris Puremovement as well as the Dayton Contemporary Dance Company , known for dazzling audiences and angering carpet salesmen with their elaborate rug cutting. On Saturday and Sunday, Deeply Rooted Dance Theater gyrates through a mélange of traditional African dance and classical forms, and the Ailey II troupe brims with youthful energy. The August Wilson Center’s resident dance ensemble will join guest groups at all three performances, executing fancy footwork and toe bench presses amid the venue’s 486 seats and clean, modernist lines.

$20 for One Ticket to "A Musical Christmas Carol" at Byham Theater on December 9, 10, or 11 (Up to $46.75 Value)
Alfred Hitchcock once said, “Drama is life with the dull bits cut out,” which explains his penchant for casting crust-less sandwiches in every leading role. Chew on exciting art with today’s GrouponLive deal: for $20, you get one ticket to the Pittsburgh CLO’s performance of A Musical Christmas Carol at Byham Theater (up to a $46.75 value). Pittsburgh CLO offers half-price tickets for children aged 3–14. Groupon holders will receive the best available seats in the mezzanine or orchestra sections . Choose from one of the following performances: Friday, December 9, at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, December 10, at 8 p.m. Sunday, December 11, at 6 p.m. A Musical Christmas Carol encapsulates the jovial spirit and yuletide magic of the holiday season in a production that infuses the classic Dickens tale with seasonal melodies. The Pittsburgh CLO’s immensely talented cast recreates old England with a host of love-to-hate characters, including the cantankerous Ebenezer Scrooge, played by Pittsburgh’s own Tom Atkins. First-rate set design and spectacular special effects thrill audiences, from the appearance of the Ghost of Christmas Future to a dance-off between Scrooge and Bob Cratchit taken from Dickens’s controversial alternative ending. Opened in 1904, the Byham Theater is a spectacle in itself, as theatergoers will note from the landmark’s original mosaic-tile floor and restored cherub lobby. Dedicated to celebrating the ghosts of musical theater past and present, the Pittsburgh CLO proudly remains a nonprofit cultural institution that lauds distinguished musical-theater folk while launching the careers of another generation of skilled performers.
