Spa Package for One or Two with Manicure, Pedicure and Facial at Glamour Nails & Spa in Rowlett (Up to 62% Off)

Without regular care, people often lose confidence in their nails, letting high-fives become waist-level threes and jazz hands turn into manual Muzak. Show off proud digits with today’s Groupon to Glamour Nails & Spa in Rowlett. Choose between the following options: For $59, you get a spa package for one (a $135 value). For $99, you get a spa package for two (a $270 value). Each person receives: Glamour manicure (a $20 value) Sports spa pedicure (a $25 value) Glamour facial (a $90 value) Guests at Glamour Nails & Spa can sip on complimentary beverages as skilled aestheticians work over nails using hygienic equipment. During the Glamour manicure, deft hands shape the nails’ edges, exfoliate cuticles with one of more than 10 special scrubs, and massage lotion into the hands during a 10-minute cucumber massage. Pineapple extracts ensure that oxidants feel unwelcome as a hot towel swathes the arms in material comfort before the technician fits nails for a new polish coat in their choice of colors. Lest sock-obscured nails feel jealous, they receive their time to shine with the sports spa pedicure, which trims and shapes the nails and grooms cuticles to one day take over as big toe. Special callus work ousts hardened patches, and cooling gel with hot-towel wraps and an exfoliating 10-minute massage leave feet satisfied with their vacation from shoes. Faces preen under their own 70-minute pampering session during the Glamour spa facial. Seasoned skin experts thoroughly examine and scrutinize visages before cleansing them and abrading dead skin cells with an exfoliation. Exposed newborn skin hydrates with a milk mask before cold stones press on pressure points to alleviate tension. A massage of the face, neck, and shoulders unknots any remnants of stress, nature’s tool for preventing humans from enjoying concerts and not writing their doctoral dissertations while at baseball games.

$29 for an Oil and Filter Change Maintenance Package with Wiper-Blade Replacement at Courtesy Nissan in Richardson ($69.95 Value)

Proper car maintenance will help a vehicle live longer, just as proper muscle maintenance will help you save a car from drowning. Be a hero with today’s Groupon: for $29, you get an automotive-maintenance package at Courtesy Nissan (a $69.95 total value) in Richardson. The package includes the following: An oil and filter change (a $39.95 value) Two front windshield-wiper blades (a $15 value each) Complimentary multipoint inspection Courtesy Nissan’s experienced mechanics pamper and service all types of automobiles, helping them approach infinity on their odometers. During the oil change, engine curators extract old oil like a tin-man phlebotomist and inject fresh filters with up to 5 quarts of conventional Valvoline oil. An ensuing inspection addresses cars’ safety systems—including brakes, steering, fluid levels, and tire pressure. Before horseless carriages roll back onto the road, car caretakers lash on two front windshield wipers designed to deliver more roadside clarity than a psychologist’s lemonade stand; in all, the service takes about 90 minutes. Additional necessary shop supplies may incur an additional fee. Though Courtesy Nissan sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

$6 for $12 Worth of Self-Serve Frozen Yogurt at Tutti Frutti

One-Night Stay for Two with Romance Package at Hattie May Inn in Texas

Charming Victorian Bed and Breakfast with Wild West Past During the turn-of-the-century heyday of Hell’s Half Acre—Fort Worth’s notorious saloon district—cowboys and highwaymen frequently broke into brawls. In one tragic 1917 shootout, a tavern owner was cornered on his own back porch and peppered with gunfire from the back of a stolen carriage; one bullet was permanently lodged in the mansion’s wall. Today, the bullet is just an emblem of an outlaw era long gone: that same Victorian mansion has become the Hattie May Inn, a bed and breakfast with a quaint and serene atmosphere. But the building has been painstakingly restored to recreate the feel of the original 1904 iteration, earning it Fort Worth’s 2008–2009 Preservation Honor Award. Outside, the inn’s lemon-yellow façade drips with elegant decorative details, including a colonnaded wraparound porch, an open-air corner turret, and gable pediments carved with ornamental scrollwork. Inside, striped wallpaper frames ornately carved wooden antiques and a tile-framed fireplace. Cozy guest rooms assemble themed collectibles: there’s a 48-star flag in the Americana room and a painted fan in the Oriental Oasis room. Hattie’s Hideaway features an old-fashioned steamer trunk and a parlor table, where guests can savor wine and chocolate-dipped strawberries or place bets on the inn’s monthly electric bill. In the afternoon, the inn serves complimentary snacks such as home-baked cookies alongside hot and cold beverages. A hearty, freshly made country breakfast greets lodgers in the morning, with biscuits, eggs, and bacon prepared in high Texan style. Fort Worth: Western Reenactments and Cultural Renaissance The iconic silhouette of a Texas longhorn bull features prominently throughout the state, but it has symbolism beyond being a college-sports logo. In the Forth Worth Stockyards National Historic District—just north of the Trinity River—a twice-daily cattle drive shepherds a small herd of the heavy-browed cattle right along the asphalt road in tribute to the spirit of the American west. In addition to frontier nostalgia, Fort Worth cultivates a vigorous modern-day arts scene. The downtown Sundance Square—which pays homage to notorious robber the Sundance Kid—is lined with trendy restaurants, shops, and cultural centers such as the Bass Performance Hall . Just west, numerous art museums showcase world-class collections: the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth hangs Picassos, Warhols, and Pollocks, and the Kimbell Art Museum ’s The Torment of Saint Anthony represents Michelangelo’s only painting not hung on his parents’ fridge.

$10 for $25 Worth of Ribs, Sandwiches, and Gourmet Mac ‘n’ Cheese at Duke’s Original Roadhouse

The actual best thing since sliced bread is sliced meat placed between sliced bread and then sliced in triangles and stuffed into a donut. Fill the meatless void in your life with today’s Groupon: for $10, you get $25 worth of ribs, sandwiches, and gourmet mac ‘n’ cheese at Duke’s Original Roadhouse , valid at locations in Addison or Plano. Duke’s Original Roadhouse serves its menu of classic American fare until 2 a.m. every day. The Flying Pig sandwich, a new menu item, heralds in a hyperbolic combination of smoked sausage, sliced ham, crisp bacon, and pulled pork sprinkled with a thai-chili barbecue sauce and fried onion strings ($10.99). Juicy, half-pound burgers ($6.99–$8.49) don toppings such as thick bacon, sautéed mushrooms, pepper jack cheese, and jaunty berets, whereas tender, flatiron steaks ($12.99) and Alaskan salmon filets ($14.99) flaunt uniform grill marks and mashed-potato sidekicks. Chefs whip up gourmet mac ‘n’ cheeses, blending the all-American chow with inventive ingredients such as seasoned pot roast and brown gravy ($10.99), or a sliced hotdog and shredded cheddar ($8.99). Both locations boast an expansive outdoor patio with covered seating, glossy wooden tables, and a wait staff comprised of trained sparrows. Though not included in today’s Groupon, a full bar pours daily drink specials, including a nine-hour happy hour available seven days a week.
