Before the invention of snacks, humankind had to make do with squirreling away extra provisions inside their cheek pockets for periodic munching. Give thanks to years of progress by openly nibbling on today's Groupon: for $7, you get $14 worth of snacks and more at The Nutbox, at any of their locations in Greenwich Village, Brooklyn, or Chelsea Market, or from their online shop.

The Nutbox cracks open an assortment of nuts, candies, natural seeds, and snacks and mixes. Fill up assorted sizes of eco-pine gift boxes ($14.99), made from ecologically sustained forests in Wisconsin, with 1-pound bags of your plucking, such as dried blueberries ($15.99), sun-dried tomatoes ($4.99), or vegetable chips ($19.99). Caffeine connoisseurs can follow their nose and dopamine transmitters to the Nicaraguan ($14.99) and Tanzanian peaberry ($13.99) fair-trade organic coffee beans. The Nutbox gives back to the community by supporting several charity events throughout the year, and their cheery locations feature glossy hardwood floors and appetite-inducing orange hues, making snack selection an even more pleasant process than usual.
