My wife really wanted to buy yesterday’s “Stage West Theatre Restaurant” Groupon deal, but it was sold-out by the time she got around to buy it. The lesson here is to not to hesitate or wait to buy something if you want it. These daily sites have gotten very popular in Calgary and have been selling like hot like cakes and I’m starting to see more and more daily deals sell out.

As well, I’ve had many people email me after they forget and miss out on a deal and ask if there’s anyway to still get in on the deal. The answer is usually no, unless one of the deal sites relists or extends a deal, but this rarely happens. I know how easy it is somtimes to tell yourself you’ll go back and buy it later, but forget until it’s too late and the deal expires. It’s already happened to me a couple times. My advice is to buy it when you first see it posted here and just get it out of the way. This way, the vouchers will be yours and you won’t have to worry about missing out on the deal or it selling out. 

Anyways, today’s deal is a limited 1-day only sale that will expire tonight at midnight (Wednesday, September 22, 2010). Click here to buy now or for more information about the deal.

The good and talented people at Mambo Productions offer multiple fun and educational salsa dance classes each week. Group classes at the salsarie focus on teaching students the basics of technique and musicality, and teachers bestow their sleek salsa moves and ceremonial headdresses on protégés of all levels, from beginners to champions fallen out of the circuit. In each class, the energetic and experienced instructors twirl out onto the pristine dance floor and lead their flock through a series of steps, moves, and math quizzes necessary to achieving an ideal salsa form. Partners are not required for the dance classes, and you’ll occasionally rotate through dance dates, so you can experience a variety of partners’ quirks while getting to know your fellow classmates.

Salsa dancing, like salsa the condiment, is healthful, colourful, and an essential ingredient for any successful party or breakfast. Develop a new hobby, get closer to a handsome stranger, or hone your wedding-guest skills with a triumvirate of lessons at Mambo Productions.

Experience the magic of the stage with today’s Groupon: for $48, you get dinner-theatre admission to Tuesdays with Morrie at Stage West Theatre Restaurant (a $97 value with tax included). Purchase one of the following Groupons:

•Tuesday, September 28
•Tuesday, October 19
•Tuesday, October 26

Each performance at the elegant dinner theatre is preceded by a bountiful buffet, featuring 120 items to dine on, including a sprawling dessert selection. The buffet begins at 6:00 p.m., so pile your plate and nosh in good company until 7:45 p.m., when the performance commences. MASH star Jamie Farr plays Morrie in the play, based on the New York Times–bestselling autobiographical classic by Mitch Albom about a journalist reunited with his aging and ill college professor Morrie, 16 years after the two last encountered one another. Over the course of weekly visits, the young man learns about life, love, and friendship from his wise elder, and their bond strengthens as the professor deteriorates.

While suppering is always sublime, recent wild assumptions indicate that it is most sublime and best-digested when chased by a critically acclaimed play. So serve up some culture with your nightly meal, or gift this Groupon to a know-it-all youngster for a healthy dose of his weekly wisdom.
