Top 5 reasons you should always buy Girl Scout cookies

Last Updated on January 28, 2018 by cassnetwork

Fort Wayne, IN – Have you noticed Girl Scouts selling cookies around town for the past few weeks? Maybe you’re in a hurry or have already spent your grocery budget for the week. But next time a Girl Scout asks if you’d like to buy cookies, take a minute to consider the top five reasons you should always stop and say “yes”:

  1. Besides being delicious, Girl Scout cookies are American-made at two bakeries – Little Brownie Bakers and ABC Bakers.
  2. Cookies can last a long time. Each box has a “Use or Freeze Before” date on the package.
  3. There are gluten-free and vegan options. Or choose the “zero-calorie” option and donate them to service men or women serving overseas.
  4. You’re supporting girls who’ll be tomorrow’s business leaders as they learn valuable leadership skills.
  5. The net revenue benefits your local community and makes adventures – camps, trips and other learning opportunities – possible for the sellers.

The cost of a box of cookies in the GSNI-M council is $4. The sale continues through March 4. To buy cookies:

  • Contact any Girl Scout
  • Stop by a cookie booth; find locations near you by using the Girl Scout Cookie Finder at gsnim.org
  • Download the Girl Scout Cookie Finder app on your iOS or Android mobile device and press “Find Cookies Now”
