Who says there’s no such thing as a free lunch? Reading Terminal dishes it out

The Terminal's Center Court.

The Reading Terminal Market at 12th and Arch streets is celebrating its 120th anniversary Wednesday by giving Philadelphians a free lunch – well, tech-savvy Philadelphians with cell phones.

From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., anyone who pays with their phone using the Philadelphia-based LevelUp mobile app will receive $10 toward lunch at over 30 participating merchants inside the market.

A historic anniversary combined with local progressive payment technology and free food – what more could a girl (or guy) want?
