Dramatic skiing films are rare due to the difficulty of hearing actors discussing the loss of a loved one or a pretty good magazine while hurtling down a mountain at 100 knots. Dress for a rare part in cinema with today’s Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of outdoor sports gear and apparel at CD Ski & Sports or Doug & Lynda's Ski Shop. This deal is valid at locations in McKinney, Grapevine, and Fort Worth.

The sports shops sport a hefty selection of equipment and apparel from high-caliber brands to keep skiers, snowboarders, and snowbenders of all ages geared up for outdoorsy adventures and bundled up against our winter sun’s cold caresses. Like mood-ring shades, merch prices range widely at CD Ski & Sports and Doug & Lynda's Ski Shop; goggles, for instance, start at $20, whereas ski jackets start at $99.

• This shop will have everything you can think of for skiing… There are many jackets, ski equipments, gloves, outfits for adults and children. – Alex C., Insider Pages
