$1 Oysters @ The Hole in the Wall

The Hole in the Wall, a narrow alleyway of a pub in the Junction, has buck-a-shuck oysters on Tuesdays from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

1/2 Price Oysters @ the Whipporwill

Tuesday to Friday, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., the Whippoorwill Restaurant in Bloordale offers half-priced oysters. They are regularly $3 each, so a bit more than buck-a-shuck but still a good deal. They also have $5 pints and half-priced pork meatballs on toast. Plus, on "Sparkling Sundays," you can get 1/2 price oysters AND 1/2 price bottles of sparkling wine between 5:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.

Free Outdoor Skating @ City Rinks

There are 50 free outdoor skating rinks in Toronto, and they will all be open by December 5th.

Four rinks have skating trails too:

Greenwood Park has a 215-metre trail that winds around a landscaped area, Colonel Sam Smith Park has a 250-metre trail in the shape of a figure eight with views of Lake Ontario, and Dieppe Park and Rennie Park both feature landscaped skating paths.

Rinks are generally open from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. all week. They get busier after 3pm when the kids get out of school, FYI. Oh and some of the rinks have bathrooms. Click here for more info!
