Like golf, a day of shopping is relaxing, fun to do with friends, and can leave you inexplicably covered in plaid. Let a caddy hold your bags with today's Groupon: for $15, you get one admission, including luxury gift bag, to Shop & Talk presented by Boston Event Guide, taking place at Venu and Rumor on Saturday, June 18. Choose between the 11 a.m.–2:30 p.m. session and the 3 p.m.–7 p.m. session.

Stylish boutiques, soothing spas, and a multitude of enticing merchants shower the attendees of Shop & Talk with complimentary samples and beckoning buyables alongside cocktails, cuisine, and music. Shoppers can enjoy samples from local stylists, aestheticians, and fitness centers before browsing the variety of retailers to buy the perfect blouse or invisibility cloak with which to drape elegant extremities. Along with an array of exciting door prizes, a luxury bag filled with goodies and gift certificates completes the complimentary mother lode, lavishing guests with passes for Equinox Fitness Club, parties at Splash, gift certificates from Chobani and Stash Tea, and a variety of beverage and snack samples. Sandwiches from The Big Cheese, pretzels from Twist, and other tempting edibles for purchase satisfy shopping-induced cravings, or provide the perfect accessory when attached to a necklace. Parking is available nearby for a fee of $7–$10 with a Central Parking coupon.
