At some point, people usually begin to appreciate the finer things in life, such as fine cigars, aesthetically crafted dumpsters, and drinking the most expensive bottles of wine with silly straws. Take part in one time-worn tradition with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of tobacco products plus a one-month cigar-lounge membership at Tobacco Barn (a $47 total value), located in Lake Forest.

Since 1929, the tobacco-leaf purveyors at Tobacco Barn have amassed a wide variety of cigars, tobacco pipes, and pipe tobacco, along with a relaxing cigar lounge where you can freely puff away. Tobacco connoisseurs can taste the intricate spices and cloves in one of Drew Estate's Nicaraguan-grown Ambrosia Spice cigars ($8.16), while actors can prepare for their roles as Mark Twain–esque robotic supercops by picking up a Missouri Meerschaum corncob pipe ($8.95). Cigar mavens can peruse Tobacco Barn's selection of premium brands, including Padron, Arturo Fuente, Camacho, Ashton, CAO, AVO, Romeo y Julieta, and more. In addition to its aromatic goods, today’s Groupon gets patrons a one-month cigar-lounge membership, which boasts a comfortable location comfortably enjoying a wide variety of high-quality cigars along with dart boards, shuffleboard, multiple widescreen TVs, and ongoing special events.
