Driving a shiny car is a great way to experience luxurious transportation without the hassle of chartering a yacht or riding a peacock to work. Transform regular vehicles into ritzy rides with today's Groupon: for $20, you get three signature car washes at Southland Auto Wash (a $41.97 value). This Groupon is valid at locations at 1325 Leonard St. NW (Grand Rapids), 1000 28th St. SE (Grand Rapids), 2730 28th St. SE (Grand Rapids), 3755 Alpine NW (Comstock Park), and 1259 28th St. SW (Wyoming).
Southland Car Wash's meticulous attention to sanitizing and grooming cars, along with its commitment to water conservation, has earned it a nod as Grand Rapids Magazine's Best Car Wash. During each Express Signature wash, foam brushes and high-pressure water punt particles and less-effective brushes off the car's surface, as Wheel Magic and Tire Blaze deftly groom the car's rubbery feet. Then, a trio of polish wax, clear-coat protectant, and sealer wax clings to the finish as tightly as a rhinoceros beetle clutching its freshly slaughtered hot dog.
Customers may upgrade to a full-service wash for an extra $5 fee at the location at 1259 28th St. SW in Wyoming.

The Groupon Guide to: Writing an Urban Legend
Everyone secretly wants to believe in scary stories that might be true. Indulge your friends' gullibility with these tips to crafting the perfect urban legend:
• Make sure the story takes place somewhere nearby, on a similar night—ideally exactly 100 years ago to the night. Or on the devil’s birthday.
• Always include an animal that turns out to be a different animal or an animal where one does not belong—like a dog that is actually a rat, or an alligator in the bathroom of the Museum of Alligator Safety.
• Tweak the details—it's only a few letters’ difference to change "gardener" to "murderer," and only a small white lie to change "was valued by the community" to "possessed double hook hands and a thirst for marrow."
• Always carry "proof"—this can be a monster's tooth carved from soap, a faded newspaper article created in Photoshop, or a scrap of the victim's clothing that is actually just a scrap of clothing you ripped off a terrified hiker you chased through the woods.
