The quintessential American pant, jeans have been associated with cool and comfort ever since the first cowboy and cowgirl locked eyes across the pasture and rode off to get married and raise cowbabies. Rope in a style with today's Groupon: for $85, you get $155 worth of custom-fit jeans from Indi, an online boutique.
Rather than measuring for the masses, Indi offers an easy design-it-yourself system to tailor jeans for individuals. With a wide closetful of styles for both women and men, Indi takes the measurements you provide and builds them into a very individual pair of pants. Most jeans start at $155, but if you choose a more expensive pair, you can pay the difference. Indi offers free outbound U.S. shipping and unlimited alterations, letting you perfect the cut of your lower-body snugglers. Once your jean template is flawless, Indi will keep it on hand for future orders. Unlike mass-produced leg stockings that ignore extra knees, Indi's form-fitted pants look slick while providing your lower half with specially catered comfort.

The Groupon Guide to: Barbecue Secrets
Every barbecue joint boasts a secret ingredient or technique that makes its sauce unlike any other. Since most barbecue chefs have taken these secrets to the grave, here's a new list of public-domain barbecue secrets for the aspiring grillsman:
- Throw recipe thieves off your trail by filling your sauce with decoy ingredients such as talc, water, and heaping spoonfuls of rival sauces.
- Age your sauce in an oak cask for 15 years—it doesn't do anything, but you'll sure be hungry by then.
- Go bananas—add bananas to your sauce!
- BBQ is short for B.B. Queen—the wife of legendary bluesman B.B. King—and real barbecue sauce must contain exactly one of her soulful tears.
- As with success in any field, the real secret ingredient is confidence —except in barbecue sauces, in which it is horseradish.
