Before coffee, early risers stayed awake by blaring air horns in their ears during morning meetings. Protect fragile ears and delicate careers with today's Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of fresh fare and coffee at Hi Point Coffee & Cafe on Robb Drive.
The good-natured bean barons at Hi Point Coffee & Cafe sling coffee, flaky pastries, and freshly prepared breakfast and lunch fare made in-house every day. Ensure peepers stay perceptive during gridlocked jaunts through the urban jungle with a wide selection of caffeine-carriers brewed from Reno's own Wood-Fire Roasted Coffee Company ($1.70–$4.80), or indulge in a house favorite such as the Nutty Irishman latté, served on a rainbow by a festive, rabble-rousing leprechaun ($3.50–$4.50). Pacify early-morning grumbles with an assortment of fresh scones, muffins, cinnamon rolls, and more ($1.25–$2.50) before settling into a stool for an appetite-annihilating Hi Point breakfast platter ($8).
For lunch, inventive patrons can construct a culinary masterpiece by building their own focaccia pizza from a savory selection of fresh cheese, sauces, and toppings such as bacon crumbles, roasted zucchini, and roasted red onion ($7). Hot and cold sandwiches sate carnivorous and herbivorous swallow-sectors ($8–$9), and pintsize gourmands can gnaw the crusts from a grilled PB&J with fresh berries ($6). Live music and special events occupy Hi Point's relaxing, sun-soaked dining room, which comes adorned with glowing papier-mâché globes, reams of books, and chalkboard tables ideal for sketching stick-figure self-portraits.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Flirting
From a handsome giraffe flaunting its long black tongue for a female giraffe—also known as a zebra—to a single-celled eukaryote flexing in a mirror before undergoing asexual binary fission, no species can begin the mating process without taking its first step: the humble flirt. Here are some surefire flirting tips to help you attract the zebra of your species:
• One time-tested technique is to drop a handkerchief and allow a potential suitor to pick it up for you. Since no one uses handkerchiefs anymore, you may substitute a used wad of facial tissue or an iPad preloaded with a haptic-feedback nose-blowing app. Two-word tip: Be coy!
• Gentlemen may be forgiven for shedding another contrivance of flirtations past—laying an overcoat over a puddle for a lady to step across. Space-age polymers have made waterproof overcoats more durable than ever, rendering this gesture meaningless—a modern gentleman instead carries a hollow cane through which he can slurp the puddle into his cheeks, so the damsel may trot across dryly. Two-word tip: Don't spit!
• People are attracted to money and confidence. Impress that bed-headed bank teller you've been crushing on by using him as a human shield during your getaway. Two-word tip: No cops!
