If the game Monopoly taught us anything, it's that owning a car is a responsibility equal to that of owning a dog (or a thimble) and that Free Parking is something that happens to other people. Partake of the Park Place lifestyle with today's Groupon: for $5, you get one day of parking and shuttle service to or from Oakland International Airport with Airpark in Oakland (up to a $13 value).

Airpark safely shuttles jetsetters to and from Oakland International Airport and puts rowdy roadsters in the hands of a capable car nanny. Offering both long- and short-term parking, Airpark provides baggage handling and around-the-clock surveillance, ensuring your steel pony won’t gobble up sugary engine oil or lurid late-night television chase scenes in your absence.

Transportation technicians offer free 24-hour shuttles to whisk you away to your terminal for an illicit elopement or a day spent racing pilots down moving sidewalks. This Groupon covers one day (or 24 hours) of parking, after which the regular rate of $10 per day (special winter rate) or $13 per day (regular rate) applies. Before taking your three-minute shuttle trip to the check in, tuck your truck or hatchback into the well-lit, fenced facility for a respite where vehicles can dream of the day when chocolate ethanol becomes a reality.
