Making popcorn involves spending an inordinate amount of time in front of a microwave, potentially leading to melty screen-printed T-shirt graphics. Keep your Mark McGwire T-shirt jersey intact with today's Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of gourmet popcorn at Popcorn Palladium in Suwanee.

Popcorn Palladium fills watering mouths with 18 flavors of gourmet popcorn. Dip into a batch of classic butter-flavored bites ($3.25 small, $10.25 large), or a bushel of green-apple popcorn ($3.95 small, $10.95 large), free of seeds and infiltrating gummy worms. A handful of jalapeno kernels ($3.75 small, $10.75 large) spices up a bland afternoon, and a mouthful of parmesan garlic ($3.75 small, $10.75 large) wards off vampires who want to steal your fillings. Sweeter teeth are sated with a selection of jolly-rancher slushies ($1.75–$2.30), ice cream ($.99–$2.49), cotton candy ($3), and more.

In addition to filling tummies, Popcorn Palladium fills its cozy shop with plush leather furniture, shiny hardwood floors, and bright-blue walls. Kids can escape homework with an all-day stream of children's flicks starring Russell Crowe, and adults can escape children's flicks with unlimited free Wi-Fi.
