Dessert-shrinking technology gave us the cupcake, the baked rhode island, and the gingerbread studio apartment. Nibble a little with this Groupon.

Cookies are $1, cupcakes range in price from $2.25 for one to $25 for a dozen, and mini cupcakes are $30 for two dozen.

With display cases brimming with a dozen or more cupcake varieties, the dessert chefs at The Sweet Tooth have deemed their shop a cupcakery. Made from scratch with fresh ingredients, regular flavors include a red velvet concoction called rouge, choc-o-mint, and vanilla vanilla, which comes crowned with a juicy maraschino cherry. Cookies harmoniously complement the cupcake selection, boasting seven varieties and barbershop-quartet-quality chops. The Sweet Tooth's blog keeps customers updated about seasonal flavors and the cupcake of the week, and the bakery also brings a touch of sweetness to the community by catering area events and partnering with local charities.

Camping brings man closer to nature and nature closer to a boom box. Introduce Mother Nature to Papa Roach with this Groupon.

Customers can occupy full campsites with their RVs for up to a week, or spend two to three nights in a fully furnished wood cabin. Each cabin is equipped with a kitchen and shared bathrooms with accurately monogrammed towels. Groupon customers receive 10 percent off all purchases at Weaver's Tackle Store during their stays. Customers can also use any option toward longer stays.

Alongside wide parking spaces for RV trailers, Fishing Tales RV Park welcomes visitors to bunk in four fully furnished rustic wooden cabins shaded by the clingy hugs of trees. The Oberle family oversees the campground and fills each cabin with double beds and futons, with three holding bunk beds, as well as flat-screen TVs, shared bathrooms, and private kitchens. They stock kitchen spaces with modern amenities such as stoves and coffeemakers, and visitors can also venture outside to raised porches populated by charcoal grills and deck furniture. The adjacent Weaver's Tackle Store builds on nearly 40 years of history hawking bait, tackle, and gear for fly-fishing and spin casters. Rods, reels, fishing line, and vests hang on racks beside colorful jigs poured and hand tied by local craftsmen and taste tested by local fish. An onsite coffee bar nourishes visitors before they test out equipment in the waterways of Bennett Spring State Park and Trout Springs Fishing Resort and cast their lines between shores brimming with dense foliage.

Human ears can detect the crack of a bat during a baseball game, but only the eyes can determine whether it’s the batter hitting a pitch or the shortstop pummeling a piñata. Protect your anatomy’s most valuable players with today's Groupon.

Helmed by board-certified ophthalmologists, Silverstein Eye Centers helps clear up fuzzy views with a compassionate approach and high-tech tools. LASIK surgery is the most-performed laser vision-correction procedure for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, with a high rate of procedures resulting in clear vision. In a LASIK procedure, the doctor reshapes the cornea with precise lasers so that the eye refracts light directly onto the retina, sharpening the eye’s vision and ability to detect nearby specters. Very similar to LASIK, PRK surgery reshapes the surface of the cornea, rather than tissue under the corneal flap, to improve vision in the same way that LASIK does. The PRK procedure can be a better fit for those with thin corneas or large pupils and for those at risk of injury, be it on the job, while participating in sports, or during enthusiastic eye rolling.

This Groupon is valid at Silverstein’s two locations: in Kansas City and Lee's Summit.

Belize is easy to overlook. It's a tiny country locked in between Mexico, Guatemala, and the Caribbean Sea to the east. "If the world had any ends, Belize would certainly be one of them," author Aldous Huxley said in 1934, as noted by the New York Times. Since it's existed in relative obscurity for years, Belize still has an undiscovered feel; many of its most beautiful aspects require you to hike, dive, or go spelunking. Hidden amid the wild jungle are hundreds of cave systems and Maya ruins. And out under the water, you can find the second-longest barrier reef in the world in Belize, which is surrounded by thousands of tiny remote islands called Cayes.

Belizean Dreams is situated beachside on the country’s eastern coastline, and it's positioned nicely for you to explore the country's hidden treasures or just relax in peaceful seclusion. You can see the sea up close by borrowing snorkeling gear and one of the property’s complimentary kayaks, or try to be the first to cross the sea upon one of the resort's complimentary bicycles.

In the resort’s tropical accommodations, there are covered porches that overlook the beach, dotted with palm trees and thatched huts, with the Caribbean Sea just beyond. Inside, colorful local artwork and hand-painted Mexican sinks are set against hardwood floors and handcrafted mahogany and cedar furnishings.

Chefs at the open-air Woven Palm Restaurant & Palapa Bar prepare dishes that blend Caribbean and Mesoamerican cuisines. Hudut, a mashed-plantain dish, is served with fresh fish in coconut milk, and bundiga, made from green bananas, accompanies a local chicken stew.

Belizean Dreams offers a range of adventures and excursions. On a specialty dive tour, there's a stop at the Great Blue Hole, which Jacques Cousteau declared one of the top 10 dive sites on earth. Or, on another tour, you can wind through the Maya Mountains en route to Xunantunich, a preserved Maya ceremonial site. At the top, there are panoramic views of Belize, Guatemala, and the bald spots of monkeys.

A mile away, you can find the coastal village of Hopkins, which was dubbed “the friendliest village in Belize” by Belize First magazine. The town of about 1,000 predominantly English-speaking residents is an up-and-coming tourist destination thanks to its welcoming atmosphere and growing number of restaurants, bars, and attractions.

Michael Smith’s journey to becoming the chef and co-owner of Extra Virgin began when he was a child in his mother’s kitchen. A restaurant manager herself, Smith’s mom indoctrinated him into performing the daily tasks of working in a kitchen: peeling potatoes, washing dishes, and sword fighting lobsters. The discipline she instilled helped Smith earn his culinary chops across the United States, eventually leading to gigs as executive chef in both Kansas City and Nice, France. The winner of a James Beard Award in 1999, Smith brings his well-traveled culinary acumen to Extra Virgin, a restaurant with a menu that serves as a kind of tapas United Nations, in which dishes from Brazil, Greece, Mexico, Turkey, and Spain each have a seat. Amid the eatery’s airy atmosphere flanked by red walls, diners share plates at tables or belly up to the wood-topped bar to pop open a bottle of wine.

A sore back can make everyday tasks harder, from crawling out of bed in the morning to sewing yourself into the bed at night. Add relaxation to your routine with this Groupon.

Licensed therapists assess clients' needs and target areas, then administer therapeutic deep-tissue massages that work out tension and relieve injuries.

Part of the point of getting a massage is to relieve pain, but if therapists don't pay attention to their clients, the massage itself can become a source of discomfort. That's why Sunrinity Health's licensed massage therapists encourage dialogue with their clients, a practice that allows them to not only avoid inflicting harm but also to assess the problem and customize an approach. These personalized regimens draw from a wide repertoire of treatments, from the popular gliding strokes of Swedish massage to the gentle nervous-system manipulations of craniosacral therapy.

Only a few miles separate the jagged cliffs on the west end of Negril, Jamaica, from the pristine white-sand beaches in the north. Samsara Cliff Resort & Legends Beach Resort allow visitors a chance to experience both sides. Although the sister resorts are only five minutes apart, Samsara's clifftop location on the west end commands panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea and tropical gardens. Legends, meanwhile, lies close to Negril's lively entertainment district and occupies a prime spot on Seven Mile Beach, which was recently lauded by Frommer's as one of the best beaches in the Caribbean.

Situated amid tropical gardens, Samsara's standard oceanfront rooms are set either directly on the oceanfront or across the street from the sea. For a breath of fresh air, you can step out onto the balcony or patio and take in a garden or sea view. The resort's proximity to the Negril Cliffs, a famed aquatic hotspot, makes Samsara ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

Its sister property, Legends, bustles with shops, theaters, and restaurants. At both resorts, all-inclusive plans give diners access to a homemade buffet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Domestic alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks are also included between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m.—providing refreshment after dips in one of the resorts' freshwater pools or a strenuous round of Mad Libs in the jacuzzi at Samsara. Several times throughout the day, shuttles ferry visitors between the two resorts, which extend reciprocal all-inclusive rights to each other's guests.

The western side of Jamaica is rich in natural beauty, from powdery beaches to inland tropical foliage. Travelers looking to do more than dip their toes in the sea can dive in with a snorkeling or scuba excursion—Samsara has a PADI scuba center onsite—or glide across the waves in search of marlin, wahoo, and other gilled game on a sportfishing outing.

Inland, the waterfalls and lush greenery of the island's tropical habitats await eco-tourists. At the Royal Palm Reserve, three types of swamp forest spread out over 300 acres, and a wooden boardwalk gives wayfarers a chance to glimpse a diverse array of avian species along with more than 100 different types of plants.

Just steps from Capitol Plaza Hotel, the Missouri State Capitol Building resembles an ancient Roman basilica. Ornately carved 40-foot columns mark its entrance, and a statue of Ceres, the Roman goddess of grain and agriculture, tops its massive white dome. Ceres is a fitting figure to overlook Jefferson City, which began as several gristmills along the Missouri River. A stay at Capitol Plaza Hotel puts visitors in the heart of historical downtown Jefferson City and a stone's throw from the area’s nature trails, prime fishing locales, and rolling prairies.

The guest rooms and executive suites offer wireless Internet and cable TV amid warm hues and simple decor. In the two-room executive suite, there's an additional sleeper sofa. For dinner, feel free to lounge in your room and enjoy an artisan pizza from the onsite Plaza Pizzeria, or head down for a light meal and a cocktail at the Fountain Court Lounge before unwinding in the hotel's indoor heated pool and hot tub.

Many postcards of downtown Jefferson City spotlight its domed Capitol Building and the Missouri River, the two landmarks that reflect the Missouri capital’s historical and natural spirit. Perched on a bluff that Lewis and Clark crossed under during their historical afternoon beer run, the Capitol Building embraces Missouri's history through its three-wall mural, Thomas Hart Benton’s A Social History of Missouri. Located on the third floor of the Capitol, the mural tells the story of Missouri’s pioneer days up to the rise of St. Louis and Kansas City.

On Jefferson City’s south side, the neighborhood of Old Munichburg conveys a distinctly German feel through its historical churches, Bavarian-style brick buildings, and pubs that serve schnitzel and other traditional dishes. Steps from Old Munichburg, the Missouri River draws visitors looking to canoe or catch catfish. Near the boat-access point, signs indicate how far other cities are down the river, from Rocheport (43 miles) to Three Forks, Montana (2,197 miles). Another popular spot for fishing is nearby Binder Lake, which is filled with bass and bluegill.

Lined with water parks, dinner theaters, and quirky museums, the Strip in downtown Branson is one of America’s most decorated streets. Officially known as Highway 76, the family-friendly road became a tourist spot in the early 1960s, when several country-music concerts and comedy shows turned it into an entertainment destination. With more than 100 venues added since, Branson has earned its "live-entertainment capital of the world" moniker by hosting shows ranging from Chinese circuses to the comedy of Yakov Smirnoff to country jubilees. Located a few miles south, The Suites at Fall Creek makes for a convenient home base to explore the town, offering a family-friendly environment with indoor and outdoor pools and a bustling activities center.

The resort's guest rooms have been decorated in traditional country style with wood furnishings and cozy carpets. At 900 square feet, the one-bedroom suites add full kitchens and screened-in porches. Guests can also fix meals in the studio rooms’ partial kitchens. Take a stroll along the property's narrow walking paths for glimpses of manmade ponds and manicured gardens.

Located in the heart of the Ozarks and nestled next to Table Rock Lake, Branson is just as famous for its entertainment attractions as its picturesque setting. On any given night, you can find country-music tribute shows and live dinner performances lighting up Highway 76. The six-brother musical troupe known simply as Six performs its award-winning a cappella concert most days from March through November.

Fishing remains one of Branson’s most popular activities. Perched at the foot of old Main Street, Lake Taneycomo’s clear, cold waters make it an ideal habitat for trout. Ten minutes from the hotel, Table Rock Lake offers some of the country’s best bass fishing among forests of oak and hickory trees.

Before photography, subjects had to sit in uncomfortable poses as their portraits were painted, a process that could take several tension-packed years for mug shots. Sit for a quick, painless memory immortalization with this Groupon.

Bella Events coordinates a nationwide network of skilled professional photographers, ready to arrive on location to enshrine milestones and special moments through their expert camera work. After customers send in their contact information, a photography consultant contacts them to exchange ideas and arrange photo-shoot details. By drawing on this information, the consultant can recommend the ideal photographer for the job, which, due to the laws of time and space, cannot always be Annie Leibovitz. Next, shutterbugs appear during the event, whether it be a birthday party or milestone anniversary party, to capture in-the-moment bliss. These lense experts can also render stunning headshots and graduation portraits, all enshrined as high-resolution digital images, classy canvas prints, or personalized mugs, mousepads, and tote bags.

Human ears can detect the crack of a bat during a baseball game, but only the eyes can determine whether it’s the batter hitting a pitch or the shortstop pummeling a piñata. Protect your anatomy’s most valuable players with today's Groupon.

Helmed by board-certified ophthalmologists, Silverstein Eye Centers helps clear up fuzzy views with a compassionate approach and high-tech tools. LASIK surgery is the most-performed laser vision-correction procedure for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, with a high rate of procedures resulting in clear vision. In a LASIK procedure, the doctor reshapes the cornea with precise lasers so that the eye refracts light directly onto the retina, sharpening the eye’s vision and ability to detect nearby specters. Very similar to LASIK, PRK surgery reshapes the surface of the cornea, rather than tissue under the corneal flap, to improve vision in the same way that LASIK does. The PRK procedure can be a better fit for those with thin corneas or large pupils and for those at risk of injury, be it on the job, while participating in sports, or during enthusiastic eye rolling.

This Groupon is valid at Silverstein’s two locations: in Kansas City and Lee's Summit.

Eyelashes have a number of uses, from giving butterfly kisses to shooing away actual butterflies who try to drink your eye juice. Make a heart flutter with this Groupon.

A semipermanent dye gives the appearance of longer, fuller eyelashes without makeup. Semipermanent dye withstands summer heat better than traditional mascara or eyelashes darkened with charcoal briquettes.

Skin experts at Esthetic Center rely on noninvasive scientific advancements to cultivate smooth, youthful complexions but draw on an ancient Indian art to redesign unruly eyebrows. Skin analyses can lead to custom facials with Shahnaz Husain herbal creams, enzyme therapy gentle enough for those with rosacea, or the outing of secret identities with better skin. Advanced exfoliation procedures involving microcrystal sprays and chemical serums reveal fresh, healthy skin as well as the depth of the aestheticians' knowledge. Body and facial waxing is an exclusive privilege of women at Esthetics Center, but the team extends their skills in eyebrow threading—an age-old technique that uses thread to nab hair but not skin—to both sexes.

Along with facial- and body-threading services, the staff can decorate eyes with lash extensions and bodies with henna temporary tattoos.

Pizza is a more orderly way to feed a group than serving an unwieldy party sub or dousing your guests with a chili hose. Dole out slices of fun with this Groupon.

The menu includes a side of breadsticks with mozzarella cheese ($4.49), a slice of six-veggie pizza ($5.49), and entrees such as a pesto turkey sandwich with basil, pineapple, and provolone ($5.49) or a five-meat carnivore pie ($17.99–$39.99).

Leaf-green canopies cover the front of Papa Kenos’ brick building, which attracts passersby with the smell of baking bread. Inside, panoramic wall photography ornaments exposed brick walls, and pizza-shaped hanging lights suggest the cheesy, oven-baked pies on the menu. At a booth or table, guests can grip a hearty Italian or Reuben sandwich, or consume specialty or custom pizzas by the pie or slice. After polishing off a final slice, guests can retreat to the pizzeria’s outdoor beer garden to take a sip of their favorite brew or collect clippings from a tree of flowering lagers.
