Like motorcyclists, walking-tour participants are known for their durable shoes and ability to spend hours staring at concrete. Witness cement's powers to transfix with today's Groupon: for $10, you get two tickets to the walking tour of your choice from Buffalo Tours (up to a $20 value).
Founded by the architectural adepts of Preservation Buffalo Niagara, Buffalo Tours educates residents and visitors alike about the architectural heritage of the city while simultaneously raising funds for ongoing preservation efforts. More than 20 available walking tours highlight such treasures as Buffalo’s jewel-like stained-glass windows. Eyeball an angular Frank Lloyd Wright abode during the Parkside Neighborhood tour or take the Elmwood Museum District tour to frolic through a Japanese garden in a park landscaped by Frederick Law Olmsted, one of the designers of New York City's Central Park. Groupon buyers can snag one ticket for themselves and one for a friend, loved one, or sheltered naked mole rat curious about the ways of the human world.

The Groupon Guide to: This Year's Coolest Gadget
Technological achievements have made gadgets more advanced than ever—the only problem is that no one knows which ones are the most must-havingest. Solve that problem with this list of the year's coolest gadgets:
- SolarScoot: This urban scooting transporter, made of imported Brazilian coacaba wood with decals designed by Tristan Cuehlo, certainly isn’t embarrassing for a full-grown adult to be riding in front of other full-grown adults.
- SongDog: Days at the dog park have never been more fun with this urban technophile's dream—a helmet that gently hypnotizes your dog into bark-singing your favorite MP3s.
- MirrorMD: Ideal for the young, health-conscious urban professional, this miraculous mirror reads your skin pallor, muscle tension, blood sugar, and retinal-reaction speed, then recommends that day's mixture of vitamins before predicting your D.O.D. (Date of Divergence).
- UrbanDogHat: Compatible with SongDog and the forthcoming SongDog Pro II, this techno-leap is another kind of hat…that dogs can wear!
