Spinning mad amounts of dough above one's head is an amusing way to display a coin collection, but it requires superhuman stamina to maintain. Rest your triceps and leave the dough-spinning to the pros with today's Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of sliceable edibles and drinks at Denver Pizza Company. Choose one of two locations: strictly carryout in the Golden Triangle at 309 West 11th Avenue or carryout plus the ability to dine in at the 5022 East Hampden joint. This Groupon cannot be used toward delivery at either location.

Denver Pizza Company offers a menu overflowing with thin-crust and gluten-free base layers for topping mountains of spice blends and flavorful ingredients. A personal pie ($4.99), like a studio apartment, offers the freedom to arrange toppings however you'd like within 8 inches of personal space. The popular 5280 tops its upper crust with mozzarella, pepperoni, mushrooms, and a 5,280-spice blend crushed together by the local Spice Boys of the Rockies ($14.99). The Hero pizza flattens toppings from its homophone—the gyro—including tzatziki sauce, lamb meat, kalamata olives, tomato, and fresh basil leaves onto a foldable pizza slice ($17.25).

Share the memory of Denver Pizza Company owner Mark Huebner's rose-less exit from the 2009 season of The Bachelorette by clicking spoonfuls of Glacier ice cream ($4.99) in a toast to love not won on reality shows. Cool down spicy notes dancing atop certain pies by cracking open a can of root beer ($1) or twisting the top off a 2-liter ($1.99) and pouring it all over your face.

• In a word: Bravo. – 5280
• Absolutely the best hands down. This coming from a New Yorker – Kyle R., CityVoter
• The ingredients are superb and I love that there's practically no grease, even on the meat pizzas. – Heidi W., CityVoter
