Before waxing, the only way to get rid of upper-lip fuzz was to wait for it to metamorphose into a butterfly and flutter away. Bypass face cocoons with today’s Groupon: for $12, you get a brow-and-lip wax from Amie Ruiz at Ragtops Day Spa & Salon in Tempe (a $27 value).
From within her self-carved beauty sanctuary at Ragtops Day Spa & Salon, professional bristle banisher Amie Ruiz lays bare areas populated by unwanted hair. Employing wax as her method of follicular dismissal, Ruiz works quickly to halt lip fuzz from expanding to other areas of the face or annexing the tongue. Because eyebrows can convey mixed messages when left untended, Ruiz prunes overgrown do-not-disturbs back into jaunty hello-theres. In addition to breaking the contour-concealing tyranny of undesirable facial tufts, Ruiz also bolsters bods with add-ons available for an additional fee, unmasking new skin-covered landscapes with body-waxing treatments ($20+) or tinting eyelashes or eyebrows ($20) with eye-catching color.

The Groupon Guide to: Creative Discipline Ideas
Children sleep for about 18 hours a day, but they will sometimes act out during their brief windows of lucidity. And though any parent can teach right from wrong with a timeout or by withholding attention, it takes a special parent to discipline outside the box. Here are some creative punishments for unruly children:
- The child must eat two dinners before bedtime.
- The child must read your Toy Story fan fiction in which Buzz Lightyear spends 47 pages feeling sad about his life.
- The child must watch you smoke an entire carton of cigarettes while you explain precisely why doing so hurts your body.
- The child must get a boring art degree instead of a trendy business one.
- The child must defeat a robot version of his/herself.
