Cookie Delay Updates

Cookie delay message from GSU

March 24, 2022

Thank you for your continued support and patience as our council navigates cookie challenges that are beyond our control.

Please see the updated FAQs below for the most current information

What is the status of cookies?

Updated March 24, 2022

What is the status of cookies?

We anticipate that the following cookies are being delivered on or before Friday, March 25, to the Bailey’s warehouse:

Tagalongs
Do-si-dos
Thin Mints
Samoas! (half of the order; the remaining half will arrive on Monday, which will stock our cupboards)

How will cookies be distributed?

This Friday afternoon, March 25, beginning at 4:00 p.m. until approximately 7 p.m., service units who stated they would pick up Samoas at the warehouse (North Salt Lake location) will be able to pick up all four cookie varieties (amounts are based on orders previously submitted).

Each SUPPR received an email Tuesday evening with details of each troop’s order. All requests to increase or decrease your order of the four cookie varieties have been processed for Friday’s pickup.

Why was our order reduced to 25 cases for Thin Mints?

Based on the demand for Thin Mints, and in order to be fair to all troops across the council, the maximum amount that a troop will receive on this order is 25 cases.

How can troops get Thin Mints if they did not pre order?

Any troops that did not place an order that would like to pick up Thin Mints in the cupboard next week may pick up a maximum of 25 cases based on availability.

When can troops get additional cases of Thin Mints?

Beginning April 1 at 9:00 a.m., troops may place cupboard orders for all remaining inventory of Thin Mints. They will be available with no restrictions in the cupboards.

When can troops get additional cases of Samoas?

Samoas will arrive in our cupboards early next week. They will be turned on in eBudde as soon as they arrive so cupboard orders can be placed.

Will you be receiving more cookies?

No, once we sell through our current inventory of cookies, we will not be receiving additional cookies. We expect that we will sell out of most varieties of cookies. If you need additional cookies to fill any orders, please fill them immediately.

Service Unit Pickup Information for March 25

Updated March 24, 2022

How will service units get reimbursed for their rental truck, gas, or mileage?

Girl Scouts of Utah will reimburse the cost of a rental truck (including gas) or $35 toward gas for a personal vehicle (receipt required) per service unit. Documentation will be sent to each SUPPR for reimbursement March 24.

When will we get further details on our pickup at Bailey’s?

We will send another email March 24, with further details for Friday’s pickup at the Bailey’s North Salt Lake warehouse, located at 400 North 700 West, North Salt Lake, Utah.

When will the deliveries take place?

You will receive information early next week from Bailey’s as to which day your cookies will be delivered. If your availability is limited for delivery next week, please email awickel@gsutah.org for your preferences. Be sure to include a contact name and phone number.

How will the service unit deliver the cookies once received by Bailey’s?

Once the service unit has the cookies, they will reach out to their troops for pick up.

What if I am one of the out based service units not listed in either option above?

Girl Scouts of Utah is currently working on the distribution of these cookies and is aiming to have the cookies to the remote locations no later than noon on Saturday. We will reach out to the SUPPR to confirm delivery date and time

Cache
Desert Sky (will pick up at the St. George Cupboard)
Fish Lake
Navajo Lake
Red Rocks
Uintah Basin

How will the service unit deliver the cookies once received by Bailey’s?

Once the service unit receives the cookies, they will reach out to their troops for pick up.

How does this affect Digital Cookie?

Updated March 24, 2022

What is the status of cookies on the Digital Cookie platform?

To prioritize girl initial orders, Samoas have temporarily been turned off on Digital Cookie for the girl delivery option.
All varieties for girl delivery are temporarily turned off on Digital Coookie. We do not want to run the risk of girls taking orders and payment for girl delivery without having the inventory in hand to fulfill the order.
Once GSU receives our full reorder, each variety will be turned back on for girl delivery.
GSUSA and Little Brownie bakers have turned off Adventurefuls and S’mores as well, as they do not have those in stock to ship.
Customers can still buy Samoas on Digital Cookie with the ship only option.

What if we use Digital Cookie to take payments, and we want to sell our inventory, but there are no Adventurefuls, S’mores, or Samoas available to purchase on the app?

Make sure to use the “Cookies in Hand” option when placing the order on the app. This will allow you to sell your Adventurefuls, S’mores, and Samoas that you have in your physical inventory.

When we take payments via Digital Cookie, we spend a lot of time entering email addresses. In addition, some customers don’t want to give us their email address. Do you have a suggestion to streamline this process?

We heard this from many of you on last week’s call and are happy to announce that we have created a workaround.
- We created a generic email for this, doc@gsutah.org, where you can enter this for any customers who do not want to share their email address.
- This makes it easy to use copy and paste, or autofill on your phone to easily enter email addresses.
- Please note, no customer payment detail is attached to this email, and their information is encrypted in the app.
- It is not required to use this GSU email, we still suggest getting customer emails, so you can market your business again in the future. We simply created this as an easy solution for when customers may not want to give you their email address.

Can we cancel Digital Cookie orders for Samoas?

No, customers are unable to cancel partial or complete orders for Samoas. Once the Samoas arrive, Girl Scouts of Utah will reach out to SUPPRs for distribution

Can a customer receive a full refund of their Digital Cookie order?

GSUSA has an “all sales are final” policy on Digital Cookie and does not offer refunds at this time.

Will we offer free shipping on Digital Cookie?

We will not be offering free shipping at this time but will reevaluate if needed.

How does this affect cookie booths?

Updated March 24, 2022

Will booths be extended beyond April 4, 2022?

Great news! We heard you, and we are extending the Cookie Program to April 30. Troops may secure additional booths with their “My Sales” booth agreement forms for this extension.
Final payment (ACH) to the council will be May 3.
As a result of extending the cookie sale, Activity Credits and cookie rewards will be delayed, and we are actively working to mitigate the impact on girls and troops.
More details about this extension and new dates will be posted as soon as they are available.

Does my troop need to continue selling through April 30?

No, troops and Girl Scouts are not required to sell through the extension of the Cookie Program.
If your troop is not continuing, you will still be required to deliver your Samoas once they arrive.
If you end your sale before April 30, please deposit your funds as soon as soon as possible to avoid carrying around large amounts of money.

Will we have to re-order the Samoas that were delayed from our order?

No, everything you had originally in your order is already in the system. They have been backed out of your order online but will be put back in as soon as the inventory arrives.
Once we get the delayed cookies, those will be re-added to your eBudde account.

Can we have a cookie booth with just Samoas?

Of course! In fact, we heard many great ideas about how to hold a Samoas-only cookie booth near the end of the sale. Samoas are the second-best seller in Utah, so local cookie customers are sure to continue supporting girls with their business goals!

How does this affect cookie cupboards?

Updated March 30, 2022

What are the cookie cupboard hours and how do I place an order?

Cookie cupboard hours and instructions can be found here.

I didn’t complete the online request form for Thin Mints. Can I still get Thin Mints?

If you did not fill out the form for Thin Mints, you can come into any cookie cupboard and receive up to 25 cases of Thin Mints until March 31.
Beginning April 1 at 9:00 a.m. you can place a cupboard transaction order in eBudde for additional Thin Mints for your troop with no restrictions.
Troops can continue to order available varieties in eBudde for pick up during Cookie Cupboard hours.

Will the Cookie Cupboards have specific guidelines on how to place an order?

Please place your cookie cupboard order at least one hour prior to picking up at a cupboard.

When can I order individual packages from the Cookie Cupboards?

Starting March 21, troops can place cupboard orders for individual packages in addition to cases.

What is the update on Activity Credits?

Updated March 24, 2022

We know that extending the Cookie Program through April 30 will affect Activity Credits and important deadlines for payments. See below for updated dates.

Activity Credits mailed: end of May 2022

New Activity Credit expiration date: July 31, 2023

Camp payment due date: June 6, 2022

End of the Cookie Program: April 30, 2022

Girl money due to TPM: April 30, 2022

TPM submit final allocations and rewards in eBudde: May 2, 2022

SUPPR submit final rewards and delivery address in eBudde: May 3, 2022

Troop Funds ACH: May 3, 2022

I have a troop trip scheduled for June/July. How can we pay with Activity Credits?

If you have a troop trip scheduled for June or July, please reach out to finance@gsutah.org for assistance redeeming your Activity Credits.

Information for troops with an overage of cookies or lack of inventory

Updated March 24 2022

I have unfulfilled girl delivery orders that I do not have inventory for. What do I do?

Troops must fill girl delivered orders before selling inventory at a booth. If you are currently out of inventory to fill Goal Getter orders, please place a cupboard order at the beginning of next week to fulfill your orders. If a cookie is unavailable, contact the SLC cupboard at 801-716-5160.

Is there a way for troops to get rid of an overage of a cookie variety?

Yes, troops can utilize the Cookie Exchange feature in eBudde to help each other out with overages or gaps in troop inventory of a particular variety.
Troops do not need to do an even exchange of cookies. They can give away, accept, or complete a trade of cookies.
The troop that is giving away the packages will initiate the Troop-to-Troop Transfer under the Transaction tab. The packages are transferred to the new troops inventory, and they are now financially responsible for the amount transferred.

Should I buy cookies from another troop at a booth to help fulfill my orders?

No, you should initiate a troop-to-troop transfer.
When you purchase cookies from another troop, that troop receives the credit, funds, and rewards for that sale. The cookies purchased do not show up in your inventory, your girls will not get the credit/rewards for those cookies, and your troop will not receive the troop proceeds.

Additional information for troops

Updated March 24, 2022

Will the final troop payments to GSU be delayed?

GSU will not be initiating any pulls of any troop accounts until after the sale is over.
We have extended the money pull date to May 3 due to extending the sale through April 30.
Troops are highly encouraged to deposit funds often, so no one is left holding large amounts of money in their homes.

Who can I contact with a specific troop question about eBudde or Digital Cookie?

Please contact Allison Wickel at awickel@gsutah.org and include screenshots, troop number, order numbers, or any other pertinent information.

Can we use Venmo?

As a reminder, Venmo is not an accepted form of payment this year.
We highly recommend using the Digital Cookie app to take credit card payments, as this is the only way that Girl Scouts covers your credit card fees.
If you decide to use a different app, you are responsible for any credit card fees – you cannot pass them on to the customer. In addition, Venmo has announced that they will be sending 1099 forms to anyone who accepted payments for goods or services over $600.

How should we communicate with girls and customers?

Updated March 24, 2022

Communicating with Customers

Which orders should be delivered now?

All orders placed BEFORE January 30 were included in the girl IO pickups, so girls MUST deliver these orders as soon as possible.
Customers received automated confirmation emails with delivery estimates from GSUSA.
- These dates vary based on the date of the digital order placed.
- GSU is already receiving inquiries from customers about the status of these deliveries
Girls should communicate with customers who ordered after 1/30 about the Samoas delay

What should girls tell their customers?

We know these delays can cause challenges with customer deliveries. If you are choosing to delay your deliveries to customers until you have all their cookies, please make sure to communicate this delay with them. You can choose to deliver partial orders, but make sure to communicate with the customers that their remaining cookies will be delivered as soon as you get them.
GSU sent a generic email to all Digital Cookie customers who placed orders after January 30, and who have Samoas in their purchase. We informed them about the delay, and that their cookie order will be delivered once girls receive the Samoas. Please note, these emails can often end up in customers’ spam or junk folders, so we still encourage girls to send their own emails if they haven't done so already.
We sent an email template with messaging to all girls in the eBudde system. This way girls can copy and paste this message to send to their customers. You may use the sample email provided.

Communicating with Girls

What are some tips for working with girls during this challenging season?

We are proud of the ways our Girl Scout community has adapted to the challenges of the last few years and we are confident that you, our dedicated Girl Scout volunteers, will handle this challenge with the same growth mindset.
Talk with your Girl Scouts about what they can learn from this.
Praise girls for their creativity and resilience.
Call out the ways you see them living the Girl Scout Promise and Law, and model it by living it yourselves.
Remind all cookie customers about how proceeds stay local and are critical to fund our girls’ and troops’ activities throughout the year.
Encourage customers to “Find a new favorite,” or donate to the Gift of Caring.

Sample Email to Digital Cookie Customers - Samoas Delay

COPY AND PASTE MESSAGE BELOW – SEND TO DIGITAL COOKIE CUSTOMERS

Dear Cookie Customer,

Thank you so much for placing an order for Girl Scout Cookies! Every cookie purchase helps me with my small business and funds incredible adventures like attending Girl Scout camp, building leadership skills, exploring STEM, and giving back to my community.

When you placed your order, you received a confirmation email about your Digital Cookie Order, but the estimated cookie delivery date was automatically generated by our national organization, GSUSA.

Unfortunately, our council, Girl Scouts of Utah, is being affected by inventory delays from our baker. We are still waiting for our council’s shipment of Samoas, and I will be able to fill those orders as soon as I get the cookies.

In the Girl Scout Cookie Program, I develop essential life skills like: Goal Setting, Decision Making, Money Management, and Business Ethics. The fifth skill is People Skills. I am developing this skill right now, as I learn how to communicate about my business and interact with customers due to a situation that is out of my control, and our local council’s control.

Thank you for supporting me as an entrepreneur, and for your patience during this challenging cookie season.

COVID-19 Guidelines

Introduction

The theme of the 2022 Girl Scout Cookie Season is “Climb with Courage” and this is more important than ever! We want all our girl entrepreneurs to have a safe and successful cookie season. In order to do that, we must all follow the rules and guidelines below.

Girls and volunteers are not required to participate in any activity. It is the sole discretion of each individual family and their comfort level with the planned activity. Anyone participating in any in-person activity must complete both the Symptom Check and Parent/Guardian Permission forms. 

Girl Scouts of Utah (GSU) can modify this guidance from time to time as circumstances change.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to change as infection rates fluctuate across the state and country. There may be regional differences or developments since this guidance was published. Continue to follow local, state, and national directives. Discuss plans with families.

Restrictions vary greatly from state to state, county to county, and even from town to town—and frequently change. GSU requires following the most restrictive guidelines as the health and safety of our members is our top priority. For example, if your local guidelines do not require masks in public, GSU does require them at Girl Scout events. Therefore, masks must be worn at cookie booths.

Please continue to refer to GSU’s COVID-19 Guidelines for all in-person activities. This guidance is updated frequently as local and state guidelines are continuously changing. Find all GSU COVID-19 guidance here.

Booth Health & Safety Tips

Adhering to cookie booth procedures outlined in the 2022 TPM Manual, troops set up in front of participating locations to ask the general public for support of their troop. During a traditional cookie booth, simple variations of the process will be needed.

Masks are recommended, but not required.
If your booth is held at a business or in a location where masks are required, all girls and adults must wear masks.
Use hand sanitizer.
Stay 3-6 feet away from customers.
Implement contactless methods for payment and cookies (see below)
Record the sale according to your troop process and accept payment. If cash is offered, give change as needed and use hand sanitizer immediately after.
If utilizing the credit card option through the Digital Cookie app, ask the customer to hold their card and scan using the Digital Cookie app. If customer entry is needed, use a stylus pen. Wipe the pen and device with a sanitizing wipe upon completion and use hand sanitizer.

Contactless Ideas:

Menu board instead of cookie boxes on the table
Money envelopes to collect money and return change in a new envelope
Bin or basket to transfer cookies to customers touch free

To maintain social distancing, it is recommended that there be only 2 adults and 4 girls at each booth table. 

Troops may rotate girls throughout their booth shift to give more girls an opportunity to attend a booth.

Social Media Guidelines for Cookies

Girls can use social networking sites to gather sale commitments from family and friends. Please adhere to the following guidelines for girls/families/troops:

You can market to collect indications of interest from family and friends
You cannot post a girl’s Digital Cookie link on sites such as eBay, Craigslist, KSL Classifieds, Amazon, NextDoor, Facebook Marketplace, yard sale sites, etc.
All social media platforms should always be through accounts set to “private” or "closed"
Friends and family or a girl must not market or share a girl’s contact information, sales links, or sales information on public-facing online sites. This also includes social media groups that are labeled as “closed” but include members of the general public (city pages, special interest groups, yard sale sites, etc.). This ensures the safety of our girls and adherence to the cookie sale guidelines, as well as the numerous posting guidelines on websites and social media.
* Please note – it IS allowed to reply to someone’s post with a comment directing them to send you a private message for a link. You should not, however, be the original poster on public pages asking people to message you. You cannot use paid social media advertisements to promote a girl’s link or selling cookies in general.
Girls must sign the Girl Scout Internet Safety Pledge before doing any online activities, and all online activities must be under the supervision of an adult
Do not expose a girl’s email address, physical address, or phone number to the public
Girl Scouts under 13 can use their parent or guardian’s online sites with their approval and supervision
Girls over the age of 13 may work in partnership with an adult to market products online, using the social media of the adult or the girl’s social media sites

Activity Credits

Girl Scouts of Utah Activity Credits encourage girls to participate in the cookie program. Activity Credits give parents/guardians the freedom to choose how to reward girls for their hard work.

In-Person Order Taking

Initial Order: Collecting In-Person Orders of Girl Scout Cookies
The Initial Order Period begins Saturday, January 15, and ends Sunday, January 30. Traditional door-to-door order taking is allowed. This includes visiting businesses and other locations to take orders. When taking orders in-person, all GSU and local COVID-19 guidance must be followed. This includes wearing a face covering, maintaining proper social distancing, and following proper hygiene practices.

Our goal is to limit person-to-person contact. When taking in-person orders, consider placing the Girl Scout Cookie Line Up on the back of a clipboard or in a protective sleeve. Rather than handing the customer the order card, girls can hold up the flyer and show the customer available cookie varieties from a safe distance. Cookie Sellers can also make copies of the cookie lineup and give each customer a copy to keep, along with contact information in case they want to order more cookies later.

Girls or their parents write orders on the card, double-checking sale details and contact information, especially the customer’s phone number. Share with the customer that you will call or text to arrange delivery. You may use the Digital Cookie app to collect payment at time of order to help with a contactless porch drop delivery. Be sure to note on your order card that payment has been collected through the Digital Order app. You may want to share an approximate delivery date, so they know when to expect your call or text.

Stay up to date on local COVID-19 guidance and have a back-up plan for delivery if restrictions are put into place that might affect the delivery of these cookies.

Delivery and Collection of Payment

Delivery and Collection of Payment
Prior to beginning any deliveries, separate orders by customer name into bags and mark each bag with the contents, customer name, and amount to be collected. Call or text the customer to arrange a time to deliver their cookies and discuss payment options.

Upon arrival at the customers location, call or text to alert them that you are there. Place the order by the door and back up a safe distance. Then, collect payment—more details are available below. Note that the payment has been collected on your order card or in your Digital Cookie app.

If the customer has already paid for their order, you can deliver the cookies using a contactless porch drop. Call or text the customer when you have delivered their cookies.

Consider scheduling trunk pick-ups at a central location and scheduling customer pick-up times to minimize the number of people there at once.

Thank the customer for their order. We suggest leaving your contact information to let them know how they can purchase additional Girl Scout Cookies until March 27, 2022. After each delivery, use hand sanitizer.

Contactless Payment
Cash apps are a great way for contactless payment. Cash apps such as Zelle and Square, etc. can be used for contactless payment from a customer to a troop bank account. Take payments over the phone whenever possible. Note: Venmo is not an accepted form of payment.

Credit Card Payment through Digital Cookie
Credit card payments can be accepted through the Digital Cookie app. Please check your training materials for detailed instructions.
Contactless Payment with Digital Cookie

Fees Associated with Credit Card Payments
GSU is covering all credit card fees incurred through the Digital Cookie app this year. Other cash apps, such as Zelle or Square, can be used to collect payment. However, if using cash apps other than Digital Cookie, the user will be responsible to cover any fees incurred.

Cash Payment
GSU highly recommends cashless payments. Digital Cookie or using a cash app are the best ways to collect payment. However, if the only form of payment a customer has is cash, you must collect the cash in a safe manner while maintaining social distancing. Girls can ask the customer to place the money in a secure location, maintain social distancing to retrieve the payment and leave the cookies.

Suggestions for collecting cash:

Consider using a small basket to place near the door so customers can place their money in it and social distancing can be maintained.
Consider using a fishing or bug net to collect the money from the customer, then provide change in the same manner.

Accepting Checks
Acceptance of checks is at the discretion of the Troop Leader. If the customer is paying with check during delivery, collect the check in a safe manner while maintaining social distancing.

In-Hand Sales of Girl Scout Cookies
Girls can take Girl Scout Cookies to sell directly to customers. When participating in this manner, girls and adults must adhere to all COVID-19 guidance, including the use of face coverings, social distancing, and proper hygiene standards. Whenever possible, utilize a contactless process.

Walkabouts

Complete a walkabout in your neighborhood! Be sure to abide by GSU's COVID-19 guidelines to ensure a safe selling experience for all.

Yard Signs

Can a family place a yard sign at their home to promote a girl’s sale?

Yes, as long as the following guidelines are followed:

Choosing to place a yard sign at your home is a personal choice, and one that should be made by a girl and her family, keeping in mind all privacy and safety practices.
Yard signs may only be on the premise of a girl’s home. Signs cannot be placed in public areas, on someone else’s private property, around apartment complexes, or even at businesses owned by a girl’s family.
Many cities, towns, neighborhoods, and homeowners associations have clear rules about yard signs, so please ensure you are following all rules for where you live.
Signs may (but are not required to) include: a girl’s Digital Cookie website URL, QR code, or her adult’s phone number or email.
Signs may not include: a girl’s last name, age, photo, or asking people to come to the door to purchase cookies, as walk-up sales to a girl’s house are not allowed.

Please keep in mind that a girl and family’s decision to use a yard sign to advertise the girl’s sale is no different than placing flyers at neighbors’ homes with that same information.

Download a customizable yard sign and have it printed at your local print shop! Learn about the Girl Scout discount at FedEx Office & Print stores throughout Utah!

Cookie Rallies

What is a Cookie Rally? It’s an event to “rally” your girls so they can launch their Cookie Business into a bright future!

While the Girl Scout Cookie Program is a great way to earn funds and helps many girls do amazing things, we know that it can and should go beyond “just” a fundraiser. It should also be a skill-building learning opportunity for the girls, and at Girl Scouts, we focus on the 5 Skills of the Cookie Program. A Cookie Rally is a great opportunity to join with other Girl Scouts and learn about those 5 Skills while having a blast! It’s like a big party!

Check with your Service Unit Product Program Representative to find a rally near you!

Gift of Caring

Virtual Gift of Caring through Digital Cookie

Customers can purchase Gift of Caring packages through Digital Cookie. These cookie packages will be ordered and delivered to the Utah Food Bank by Girl Scouts of Utah. TPMs do not need to purchase these cookie packages in their initial orders or from the cookie cupboards.

Troop Gift of Caring

Your troop can reach out to an organization in your community to collect orders for and deliver those donated cookies to through the Troop Gift of Caring program. The troop will decide who to partner with, collect the donations, and personally deliver the donated packages of cookies. It’s a great way to give back while teaching the troop valuable life lessons!

Gift of Caring patches can be purchased through the GSU retail shops!

Virtual Backgrounds

Be prepared for virtual cookie booths or virtual troop meetings with a fun Girl Scout Cookie-themed background!

Online Options for the Girl Scout Cookie Program
The 2022 Girl Scout Cookie Program can be a 100% online program, which limits person-to-person contact. Our online cookie platform, Digital Cookie, will allow girls to participate in the program virtually. Girls and troops are highly encouraged to participate in this manner.

Email
Girls can send emails to immediate friends and family through Digital Cookie for purchase of cookies. With these emails, friends and family can choose from girl delivery or direct ship options to receive their cookies.

Social Media Individual Girl Link
Girls and their parents can obtain a social media link through Digital Cookie. This allows girls and their parents to share the opportunity to purchase cookies to their social network. *Girls and parents are required to adhere to GSU’s Social Media Guidelines in regards to selling cookies.

Digital Cookie Troop Link
This is a shareable link automatically created for each troop in Digital Cookie. Troops can share this link with customers so they can pay online to purchase cookies and choose to have them shipped or delivered, or you can arrange directly with the customer to pick up at your cookie booth.

National Cookie Finder!
Beginning February 18, customers can search their zip code on the National Girl Scout Cookie Finder to purchase cookies from troops via the Direct Ship Troop Link. (Troops will be selected at random via a digital algorithm from GSUSA to receive credit.) To ensure your troop is included in the link and opted in, please follow our How To Guide

Please note: you must approve all Digital Cookie orders within 5 days, otherwise it will default to the customer's secondary delivery choice (either donate or cancel).

A new girl should receive her Digital Cookie link between one hour and three days after receiving her membership information.

If you are having any issues with Digital Cookie, please contact info@gsutah.org.

Placing a Troop Booth Pickup Order
Your troop can offer customers the option to pre-pay for an order for pickup at a cookie booth your troop has scheduled. It's just a few steps to set up that option for the cookie booths you have signed up for in your booth scheduler and then treat the pickup orders similar to a cookie delivery.

Cookie Booth Resources, Guides, & Tips

Booths: Availability, Signing Up, & Ordering Cookies

Booth Availability & Signing Up for Booths
To see what booths are available and sign up for booth slots, log in to your eBudde account.

Below is a list of locations that are NOT approved for booths for the 2022 season. We appreciate their previous partnership, respect their current decision, and hope to work with them again. Please do not contact these businesses for booths, as they have opted not to participate this year, and approaching individual locations could jeopardize our relationships in the future. We will update this list as we hear back from other locations.

Associated Food Stores
- This includes Ace Hardware, Dan's, Dick's, Fresh Market, Lin's and Maceys

Ordering Cookies
Given the delivery issues experienced globally, we understand troops and service units might be concerned about receiving their initial orders on time. Little Brownie Bakers and Girl Scouts of Utah do not expect any major shipping delays for initial orders. However, we do suggest ordering booth cookies in your initial order, as we can not anticipate or promise if any orders beyond that will be delayed. GSU will not buy back unsold cookies from the 2022 Cookie program. All council cookie sales end March 27.

Booth Health & Safety Tips

If your booth is held at a business or in a location where masks are required, all girls and adults must wear masks.
Use hand sanitizer.
Stay 3-6 feet away from customers.
Implement contactless methods for payment and cookies (see below)
Record the sale according to your troop process and accept payment. If cash is offered, give change as needed and use hand sanitizer immediately after.
If utilizing the credit card option through the Digital Cookie app, ask the customer to hold their card and scan using the Digital Cookie app. If customer entry is needed, use a stylus pen. Wipe the pen and device with a sanitizing wipe upon completion and use hand sanitizer.

Contactless Ideas:

Menu board instead of cookie boxes on the table
Money envelopes to collect money and return change in a new envelope
Bin or basket to transfer cookies to customers touch free

To maintain social distancing, it is recommended that there be only 2 adults and 4 girls at each booth table. 

Troops may rotate girls throughout their booth shift to give more girls an opportunity to attend a booth. 

Contactless Payment

Cookie Booth Checklist & Resources

Cookie Booth Resources:

Looking for a way to keep your cookie booth inventory organized and accurate? Download the handy Cookie Booth Inventory Tracker template form to help your troop keep track of sales and inventory during your cookie booths!

If I have multiple troops and one girl wants to sell with the other troop, is this possible? Is this possible, and how would I facilitate this?
Yes. This is only possible for troops that are with the same Troop Product Manager. This can be facilitated with a troop to troop transfer. Please keep in mind that when cookies are transferred from one troop to another, the financial responsibility is now on the new troop. The troop product manager must the transfer the corresponding money to the other account in order to cover their cookie bill.
* This does not apply to Juliettes, as Juliettes do not participate with troops.

“My Sales” Troop Cookie Booths

Troops are encouraged to contact businesses outside of the council secured booth locations to conduct a troop booth at. TPMs need to download the “My Sales” Troop Cookie Booth Form and have the location sign it. Once it is signed the TPM will enter the information into eBudde for approval from GSU. Signed agreements need to be emailed to cookies@gsutah.org. Your booth will not be approved until the signed agreement form has been submitted to GSU.

Drive-Thru Cookie Booths

“Drive-Thru” Girl Scout Cookie Booths
Just like finding a troop secured location, you may find a location ideal for a drive-thru booth. This could be a business lot, an open lot, or large location where you could set up a driving path. Make sure it’s easily accessible by car and it can be seen from the road. Just like a regular booth, you will need to get permission from the owner to be there, enter it into eBudde, and have the booth approved. Drive-Thru Cookie Booths allow for limited contact. Please consider the following:

When setting up the location, ensure that girls will be able to stay out of the driving area during all times of the booth.
When delivering the cookies or collecting payment at each car, girls and adults must adhere to all COVID-19 guidance including the use of face coverings, social distancing, and proper hygiene standards. Whenever possible, utilize a touchless process. See payment collection options above.
Immediately following all transactions, use hand sanitizer.

Safety is our number one priority. During Drive-Thru Booths, safety measures must be increased. Please abide by the following rules. Failure to follow the rules below could result in an unsafe environment for girls. 

Drive-thru booths may need to have additional adults depending on booth setup 
No more than 4 girls are allowed to be at a drive-thru booth.
Girls must stay behind the table, safely out of drive-thru traffic flow. 
Should a girl need to leave their table for any reason, two girls and one adult must accompany girls
Daisies and Brownies must have 2 adults plus additional adults to approach vehicles.
Junior to Ambassador may conduct a drive-thru booth with 2 adults or more. 
Drive-thru booths cannot be held after dusk. 
Girls cannot approach a vehicle alone at any time regardless of age and drive-thru setup 
Drive-thru sites must have adequate space for table setup and traffic flow. 
Drive-thru sites must not interfere with public traffic flow 
Drive-thru sites must not interfere with neighboring business parking

Locations to consider for a Drive-Thru Cookie Booth:

Mattress stores 
Paint stores 
Church parking lots 
Vacant store lots 
Outlying mall parking spaces

Where Girl Scout Cookie Money Goes

Where does the $5/package go?
When you buy a package of Girl Scout Cookies, most of the money stays with the Girl Scout you purchased cookies from, her troop, and right here in our local community. Proceeds from the Girl Scout Cookie Program fund new adventures and the life-changing opportunities girls get at Girl Scouts—from educational trips and activities to community projects to spending the summer at camp.

Social Media Toolkit

Social Media Guidelines

Girls can use social networking sites to gather sale commitments from family and friends. Please adhere to the following guidelines for girls/families/troops:

You can market to collect indications of interest from family and friends
You cannot post a girl’s Digital Cookie link on sites such as eBay, Craigslist, KSL Classifieds, Amazon, NextDoor, Facebook Marketplace, yard sale sites, etc.
All social media platforms should always be through accounts set to “private” or "closed"
Friends and family or a girl must not market or share a girl’s contact information, sales links, or sales information on public-facing online sites. This also includes social media groups that are labeled as “closed” but include members of the general public (city pages, special interest groups, yard sale sites, etc.). This ensures the safety of our girls and adherence to the cookie sale guidelines, as well as the numerous posting guidelines on websites and social media.
* Please note – it IS allowed to reply to someone’s post with a comment directing them to send you a private message for a link. You should not, however, be the original poster on public pages asking people to message you. You cannot use paid social media advertisements to promote a girl’s link or selling cookies in general.
Girls must sign the Girl Scout Internet Safety Pledge before doing any online activities, and all online activities must be under the supervision of an adult
Do not expose a girl’s email address, physical address, or phone number to the public
Girl Scouts under 13 can use their parent or guardian’s online sites with their approval and supervision
Girls over the age of 13 may work in partnership with an adult to market products online, using the social media of the adult or the girl’s social media sites
