Shunning your smartphone really pays at one Buffalo, N.Y., restaurant.

Lebro’s, a long-standing Italian joint in the suburb Getzville, has been offering 10 percent discounts on Sundays to all customers who can keep away from their smartphones for the entirety of one meal.

I like this idea! I'll bet they would get a higher participation rate with a larger discount, or maybe a free app.

Wish I lived closer! lol Since I don't have a cell phone, I could do well with that offer!

Actually, I think that's a great idea. It makes me crazy watching people at a table playing with the cell phones instead of dining together. I sometimes don't think they even taste what they eat, since they are totally concentrated on the little screen before them.
