A shiny car can blind potential carjackers just long enough to distract them while you steal their bikes. Guard against larceny with today’s Groupon: for $12, you get two Uptown washes with tire gloss at Metro Express Car Wash (a $24 value), valid at locations in Boise, Meridian, and Nampa.

Metro Express Car Wash's drive-thru shower quickly and effectively cleanses chariots of grime, from exterior to undercarriage and tires. The five-minute sudsing treats road warriors to a triple-foam polish and full-body protectant, restoring the fresh-faced glow cars had when their owners first brought them home from the nursery. The speedy but thorough buggy bath also includes a two-step wheel cleaning and tire-gloss treatment, which buffs lackluster rims until they sparkle. Further, an undercarriage rinse and rust inhibitor eliminate underbody dirt build-up and rinse away hitchhikers clinging to the undercarriage. Free vacuum services allow owners to maintain their autos' inner beauty. Metro Express Car Wash is open seven days a week despite adverse weather conditions or unforeseen robot uprisings.
