Sell Cookies

It’s Girl Scout Cookie Time!

Ever thought about spending the weekend at the beach or a mountain resort?  Or maybe you want to go camping with your troop?  Not only do Girl Scout cookies taste delicious, but you can do these things and many more just by selling cookies. Did you know your troop earns 60 cents for every box of cookies you sell?  Here are some ways to sell more cookies and go on more troop outings:

• Everyone loves Girl Scout cookies, so ask everyone you know including coaches, dentists and teachers.
• Go door-to-door with a friend and a parent.
• Make a flyer to put on people’s doors if they are not home. Create an online e-mail account just for your troop and mention it on the flyer.  (Remember: Never give away personal information to people you don’t know.)
• Be enthusiastic at booth sales. People are more likely to buy if you are happy and love your product. Suggest recipes that include Girl Scout Cookies.

This year, you will have the cookies in hand when you go door-to-door.  This will save you time because you won’t have to go to the same house twice.

Cookies Make a Big Difference

If people don’t want to buy cookies for themselves or can’t eat them due to dietary restrictions, suggest donating them to the Hometown Hero program. Select a Hometown Hero to donate to. Your customers get to support Girl Scouts and a community nonprofit at the same time!

Juliettes and Cookies

All Girl Scouts, regardless of the Pathway through which they participate, may sell cookies. Juliettes earn the same recognitions as girls in troops, and earn $0.60 per package on a Juliette Fund card in lieu of the troop proceeds. For more information on selling cookies as a Juliette, click here.
