While hanging art on the wall is mainly used to hide safes containing Napoleon's long-lost sandblaster, occasionally the practice is used for decoration. Experiment with this obscure decorative device with today's Groupon: for $39, you get a personalized 16"x20" canvas (a $109.99 value), plus shipping and handling (a $14.95 value), from CafePress, redeemable online (a $124.94 total value).
CafePress provides an array of inventive, humorous, and customizable clothing and gifts. Its photos-to-canvas service allows photographers to turn one of their prized pictures into a work of canvas art. After you submit your photograph online, a CafePress artist will scour the image to improve sharpness, brightness, contrast, and color balance. CafePress uses only archival inks and coatings, guaranteeing the image will not fade for 75 years or until Rocky XII comes out. The finished image will come wrapped around a 1.5-inch-thick canvas with a real-wood frame that will arrive at the door ready to hang on a living-room wall.
Thanks to an iron-clad guarantee of satisfaction, CafePress customers can shop with the confidence of an invisible knight on a field of giant eyeballs. With speedy service ensuring the museum-quality canvas is shipped within two or three days, you can use the newly enlarged picture as a family-friendly gift.

The Groupon Guide to: America’s Most Haunted Stadiums
To save space, most of America's landmarks were built atop ancient burial grounds, but the unintended side effect was that many of our most famous buildings are now haunted. Here's a look at some of the ghostiest sportsplexes in the country:
Old Yankee Stadium: Before the team moved to a new field, some said you could still see Babe Ruth's ghostly specter jogging the bases and licking peanut shells off the ground under the bleachers.
Fenway Park: Thousands of terrified children have witnessed former Red Sox great Wade Boggs materialize out of nowhere and shout curse words in their faces, though this may not technically be a haunting since Boggs is still alive.
Rose Bowl Stadium: All of the mirrors leak blood.
Ford's Theatre: This "stadium of the arts" is haunted by its failure to abide by Theatrical Rule #1: the show must go on when a president is murdered.
Lake Placid Olympic Stadium: Like all of Montana, this majestic temple of sporting triumph is now just a thick lime-green mist that turns skin into clay.
