Making a good sandwich, like removing a child’s head from between stair balusters, requires delicate handling and a lot of mayonnaise. Marvel at skilled condiment usage with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of sandwiches, paninis, and beer at Prime by Vernon's in Los Ranchos.
The brains behind Vernon's Hidden Valley Steakhouse, bring their restaurateur experience and superior steakhouse meats to the gourmet sandwiches of Prime by Vernon's. Hands, Prime's most popular eating utensil next to elbows, transport breakfast paninis, such as the New Mexico Morning stuffed with house-made sausage, egg, and cheese ($9), safely into awaiting mouths.
Hero sandwiches steal the spotlight during lunch, and options include the Tommy Gun meatball sub ($12) and the Shylock, a wall of ham, turkey, salami, and provolone with pesto-mayo mortar ($12). Nosh on the post-noon Goomba panini, a trio of boursin, gouda, and muenster cheeses melting over heartfelt love notes from balsamic-grilled portobello, artichoke hearts, and spinach ($11), or pummel pesky thirsts with a draft beer ($8) or a glass of wine ($8) from the beverage menu.

The Groupon Guide to: Animal Sounds
Identifying animal sounds isn't just for schoolchildren and the professional hunters who capture most of the meat our nation eats today—it's a skill that might just save your life. Test your knowledge by matching the animals to their telltale noises:
The Animals
1) Dog
2) Parrot
3) Tony the Tiger
4) Dodo Bird
5) Human
The Noises
A. Er-Er-Ber
B. Cluck-Cluck
C. Argh!
D. Bow-Wow
E. They’re Grrrrreat!
The Answers
1) D Dogs go Bow-Wow. Animal behaviorists believe this signature howl is short for "Bow, humans! Wow, you're not doing it…." Dogs hate humans.
2) B Parrots go Cluck-Cluck, assuming that the parrots have been living with a chicken.
3) E Frosted Flakes' spokescat Tony the Tiger went They're Grrrrreat!, though he was recently fired after being photographed eating Cheerios in a men's hotel outside Orlando.
4) A Dodo birds went Er-Er-Ber. Or did they? We'll never know, because man hunted the flightless dodos to extinction, believing their bellies to be filled with gold. Granted, they were filled with gold, but now there's no bird-gold for the rest of us. Thanks a lot, humans.
5) C Humans go Argh! to express their innate frustration that stabbing plants doesn't cause a delicious sugary goop to come out, even though that worked once, with maple syrup.
