Although wall-to-wall carpeting is a sign of refined luxury, wall-to-ceiling carpeting is a sign that your house finally taught itself to roll over. Clean away forgettable milestones with today's Groupon: for $49, you get three rooms of carpet cleaning-up to a total area of 600 square feet-from First Class Carpet Cleaners (a $99 value). This Groupon is valid within Chicago city limits and at 21 suburban locations. Customers can also put Groupons toward $99 worth of upholstery cleaning.

First Class Carpet Cleaning dispatches squads of professionally trained, fully insured dirt fighters wielding the necessary equipment and products to annihilate domestic grime. Customers kick back with a book or lengthy courtroom transcript while staffers exorcise unpleasant aromas, ingrained stains, and dirt from carpet in three rooms stretched across an area of up to 600 feet. Patrons can request eco-friendly, biodegradable detergents that sop up soiled spots without leaving behind sticky residue ripe for gathering more grunge. Floor fringe dries within four to five hours after the appointment, which can be scheduled via telephone or skywriting during the week or on Saturdays.
