GS Cookie

Time! 2010

Well, we are back to Cookie time. This year our troop decided to try the "Cookies Now" program where we as a troop order cases of cookies to sell out of hand. In otherwords when we go to neighbors or family we can say, "would you like to buy some Girl Scout cookies?" If they say yes, then we can give them their cookies on the spot! It worked out really well for Kaleigh because we were able to let those at church know that she would be selling soon and that we would have cookies on hand to purchase. They then sent emails saying what kind of cookies they like and we in turn can pick up a variety of cookies based on the demand. Of course we will have a few extras which will then go to booth sales. It is nice because we picked up the cookies today and sold 8 boxes just like that! And tomorrow at church we have another 38 boxes to be sold! I of course took my 8 boxes, because I know that if I order the regular way, they come in about a month. By then my stash now will be mostly gone. eek! Not just me of course but my family too! chomp chomp! So, if there are any that need cookies, let me know! ; )

Oh, and the reason that the daisy cookies are crossed out is not because they are not available it is just that no one likes them, and I tell people that!

three boxes please---one each of the kinds with chocolate

Ok, but there are four with chocolate. The caramel delites have chocolate and the Thanks a lots have a chocolate layer on the bottom. Which would you prefer?

Shall I ship them to your house or PO Box?

Why don't you just deliver them? (I really don't care which kind we get)

Of course, ours are different here. I don't have anyone selling anymore, but our "thanks" cookies are called "Thank you Berry Munch" and they have cranberry & white chocolate chips :) I got a box of those. Then the regular - thin mint, samoas (caramel delites), tagalongs & trefoils (shortbread).

Good luck with your sales!!

ok.
Let's see, if we come down in the summer.... The thin mints would be the best if we froze them. Don't know how well they all hold up... : )
You know the last time Tina ordered we did have to wait until summer to deliver them!
So if you are serious and there is an invite to visit in there, maybe we will come down for a long weekend?

Of course we're serious! Best thing is to coordinate with the master scheduler as I never write anything down
