If your DD is a girl scout

When did they start doing booth sales for cookies? One of my co-leaders suggested one for our Daisy troop but I feel like they are too little. Maybe I'm being silly....

Re: If your DD is a girl scout

My DD is in her 2nd year of Daisies and we sold them last year. We earned a couple hundred dollars for the troop. We didn't do booth sales where you sell to people in a store but just by the girls selling them to family & friends. I'm the cookie Mom for our troop, let me know if you have any questions.

My DD is in kindergarten and we just did booth sales for nuts. Most parents stayed. The table was set up for 4 hours and each child signed up for an hour time slot.

Re: If your DD is a girl scout

I just read the other replies and was wondering why everyone is talking specifically about booth sales but I see that I didn't read the word booth in your original post, I just happened to reference the booth sales. I know some troops chose not to do any cookies the first year which is why the question didn't seem odd at all. OK, about booth sales specifically - the Cookie chair for our entire town told me that many people did not feel comfortable doing booths last year either with Daisies. But the 1 hour time frame that someone did above was also suggested to us. So if you have 15-16 girls like we do, have 4 groups of 1 hour time frames. She also said to not do train stations - just too risky and too much commotion even though Im sure sales are very good. GS has a relationship with TD bank so that is a good place to see if you can do it.
