Free Wawa coffee on Super Bowl Sunday

WASHINGTON — Pennsylvania-based Wawa is showing its Philadelphia Eagles pride by serving up free coffee on Super Bowl Sunday.

On Feb. 4, Wawa will offer customers free coffee of any size until kickoff time at 6:30 p.m. at all of its locations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, Maryland and its newest D.C. location near Dupont Circle.

“We talk about having Goose Pride here at Wawa, but we’ll be cheering for a different bird on Sunday and hope they bring our city a long-awaited championship,” said Wawa President and CEO Chris Gheysens.

“At Wawa, we’ve always had a special connection to the Philadelphia culture and its sports teams and we get just as excited as our customers do when one of them is playing for a chance to win a championship.”

Wawa sells a lot of coffee.

Since 2000, it said it has served more than 1 billion cups of coffee, and within the brewed coffee market, it ranks No. 6 in market share nationally.

Wawa has more than 780 locations now, including eight in the Washington region.

Massachusetts court hears arguments in lawsuit alleging Meta designed apps to be addictive to kids

BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts' highest court heard oral arguments Friday in the state's lawsuit arguing that Meta designed features on Facebook and Instagram to make them addictive to young users. The lawsuit, filed in 2023 by Attorney General Andrea Campbell, alleges that Meta did this to make a profit and that its actions affected hundreds of thousands of teenagers in Massachusetts who use the social media platforms. “We are making claims based only on the tools that Meta has developed because its own research shows they encourage addiction to the platform in a variety of ways,” said State Solicitor David Kravitz, adding that the state's claim has nothing to do the company's algorithms or failure to moderate content. Meta said Friday that it strongly disagrees with the allegations and is “confident the evidence will show our longstanding commitment to supporting young people.” Its attorney, Mark Mosier, argued in court that the lawsuit “would impose liabilities for performing traditional publishing functions” and that its actions are protected by the First Amendment.
