Before recycling, the only green products available were St. Patrick's Day beer and styrofoam cups that had been spray-painted green. Grab greener goods with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of reusable snack and sandwich bags from ReUsies, redeemable online.
Made by environmentally conscious Seattle moms, ReUsies' washable, eco-friendly bags can replace hundreds of plastic throwaways over their long lifetimes. Their fashion-forward exteriors swathe comestibles in more than two dozen colors and patterns, including bright florals and macho camouflage. Made from 100% cotton fabric, these durable, machine-washable sacks fight leaks with a water-resistant nylon lining, and velcro closures keep pretzels from making a break for it when you’re not looking.
A sandwich bag (7.5"x6", $8.95–$9.95) can contain a bagel or BLT, and smaller snack sacks (6"x5", $6.95–$7.95) hold crackers, carrot sticks, or other bite-sized munchies. Groupon holders can also color-coordinate lunch pails by purchasing a two pack of matching sandwich and snack holders ($15.90–$16).

The Groupon Guide to: Swimming with Dolphins
Humans and dolphins have loved swimming together ever since Copernicus first discovered these “smooth friendsharks” in 1510. Here's a guide to wading with the smartest of sea mammals:
- Before entering the water, make sure you are wearing the preapproved Dockers dolphin-resistant khakis.
- Earn the dolphin's respect by showing it a painting of you foreclosing on the dolphin's house.
- Swimming with dolphins does have health benefits, but only if you and the dolphin swim in a giant tank of medicine.
- Make sure you don't break the number-one rule of swimming with the dolphins, whatever that is.
- Dolphin is a combination of the words Dolph and Lundgren, also the name of the Swedish actor and martial artist that you must defeat in order to gain access to the dolphins.
