If woolly mammoths had mastered the triple Lutz, they would've made it out of the Ice Age and into the Bronze Age, if not the Silver or Gold Age. Ensure your long-term survival with today's Groupon: for $5, you get one adult admission to Bank of America City Center's massive ice rink, plus skate rental (up to a $10 value). A popular New England wintertime destination, the Bank of America City Center boasts a 14,000-square-foot ice rink that's twice the size of Rockefeller Plaza's frozen puddle and nearly as large as the nebulous peanut that rests at the gooey center of the Milky Way. Perform a blade-fused break dance or master the swan dive in an interpretive rendition of nature’s chilliest birds. Participate in this slick Providence pastime with friends and family Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.–10 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 11 a.m.–10 p.m., through March 20.

While the Bank of America City Center’s rink offers discounted pricing during certain times on weekdays, this Groupon includes skate rental and can be used whenever and still offers the best deal available.
