The Groupon logo appears as etched in glass is shown in the lobby of the online coupon company's Chicago offices. Dealnews.com has found a Groupon discount for purchases made using the service.

Some of our favorite stores are feeling festive ahead of the Saint Patrick's Day and offering big discounts on computers, apparel, and other popular vices. So, whether you're Irish or not, you can celebrate and bag the free Crazy Taxi app from iTunes, big price cuts at Dell and Groupon, and more in today's list of five Editors' Choice deals that we found overnight and early this morning.

Top Store Deal
 Groupon Local Deals Sale
 Store: Groupon
 Discount: 20% off one local event or activity via "PLAY20"
 Expires: March 17 at 2 am ET

Do You Need It?: You may think that Groupon's prices are hard enough to beat already, but alas we've found a newer and even better way to save at the daily deal site. You can slash an additional 20% off a fancy night out, a trip to the country, or a snooze somewhere lavish. It's a rare gem and one of the best ever Groupon discounts we've seen. (Note that a maximum discount of $50 applies.)

 Top Freebie Deal
 Crazy Taxi for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
 Store: iTunes App Store
 Price: Free
 Lowest by: $5

Do You Need It?: If there wasn't enough reasons to let this Friday morning go to waste at work, then this procrastination-aiding freebie from iTunes will be the final straw. It's dropped a buck since last month (and $4 from its more regular price-tag) and is now yours for nothing! It's the first time we've seen the popular title for free.

 Top Apparel Deal
 Express Men's Dress Pants Sale
 Store: Express
 Discount: Extra 50% off (applies in cart)
 Shipping: $8
 Lowest by: $78

Do You Need It?: Dressing to impress isn't an easy feat when you're on a tight budget, so we're always on the lookout for special savings for the sartorially-inclined. This collection of dress pants from Express are already on sale — at up to 67% off — but the store is further slashing those prices by half at checkout. That's the best offer we've seen on specifically similar items in nearly a year and should yields lows enough to keep you in interview/party/funeral attire for the next few months. Savvy styles to consider are the Express Men's Plaid Photographer Suit Pants (pictured) for $20 ($44 off list) or the Express Men's Khaki Cotton Sateen Producer Suit Pants for $20 ($78 off list).

 Top PC Deal
 Dell Financial Services Sale
 Store: Dell Financial Services
 Discount: 35% off one item over $199
 Shipping: Free shipping
 Expires: March 19

Do You Need It?: It's rare that we see a sitewide coupon for Dell without product restrictions, which makes this offer a real treat for anyone on the lookout for a new PC, server, monitor, or all three and more. And you don't even have to shell out for shipping, as it's free on every order. (All Dell refurbished systems are covered by a 100-day Dell warranty.)

 Sweetest Treat Deal
 Mrs. Fields Valentine's Tin with 28 Cookie Nibblers
 Store: Quill
 Price: $5.99 with free shipping
 Lowest by: $21
Do You Need It?: To appease your ravenous sugar tooth, this Mrs. Fields Valentine's Tin with 28 Cookie Nibblers is at an impressively low price - $21 less than the next cheapest store. It includes 28 bite-sized Nibbler white chocolate, chocolate chip, cinnamon sugar, and oatmeal raisin cookies.
 Total Savings: At least $104

What is the Monitor difference? Tackling the tough headlines – with humanity. Listening to sources – with respect. Seeing the story that others are missing by reporting what so often gets overlooked: the values that connect us. That’s Monitor reporting – news that changes how you see the world.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
