Thousands of free SEPTA tokens, courtesy of Stovetop

Thousands of free SEPTA tokens - and lots of free parking - will be given out tomorrow and Wednesday morning, courtesy of Stovetop, the stuffing-mix maker.

The schedule is 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. each day at the 15th and Market Streets, according to the company.

They'll be at street level, giving out tokens worth $2 for rides on buses, subways and trolleys, said SEPTA spokeswoman Jerri Williams.

The company also has city permission to feed parking kiosks in the area from 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. both days, Stovetop spokeswoman Jill Felska said.

The giveaway - which includes coupon booklets and an online contest - is the first stop for a national promotion called Spread the Warmth.

The booklets, also being handed out both mornings, will have one coupon for a free box of Stovetop stuffing, another coupon "to spread the warmth" to a friend, as well as information about the contest.

Basically, the winner of an essay contest will win $2,500 and a charity of that person's choice will get $5,000. The essay should tell, in 200 words or less, how the entrant has helped others.

For contest and campaign information go to: www.spreadthewarmth.com.
