Girl Scout cookies

[mamajoan.livejournal.com]

Has anyone spotted Girl Scouts selling cookies in the Davis Square area yet? I usually see them inside the T station, but not yet so far this year. EDIT: They were in the T station this evening, and if previous years are any indicator, they will be there again regularly for at least a few weeks.

Alternatively, anyone have a daughter who is still taking orders? :)

My daughter's troop turned in their order forms a few weeks ago. According to the booth locator, there should be someone selling at Davis today from 3-7 http://www.girlscouts.org/program/gs_cookies/cookie_season.asp?path=Path2 (close the pop-up and scroll down the screen) This may not be a Somerville (or even somewhat local) troop. The T station sales are arranged by the Girl Scout Council.

If you want to stay local, our Somerville troop will have a booth sometime in the next couple of weeks. I will definitely post info when I know the details.

and now I know the details..

My daughter's Somerville Brownie troop will be selling Girl Scout cookies at the Stop & Shop on McGrath on Saturday, Feb 9th from 1-4 and Sunday Feb 10th from 11-3. $4/box.

Thanks for the info. I was looking for a treat, and the Samoas are the best!

Excellent, thanks. I always buy from the girls inside the T station, but as you said, I usually notice that they aren't a local troop and would like to support the local girls as well.

Hi! There will be a booth sale run by a Somerville Daisy troop on (Superbowl!) Sunday in front of the Shaw's at Porter from 12-4. We're actually the sister troop of the one mentioned above, so I encourage you and anyone else looking for cookies to visit either (or both) of us!

Thank you so much!! Let me know if you have any questions :).

People should definitely go to both booths. You know the cookies you buy this weekend will be gone by next weekend. Oh, and the cookies freeze well, so buy lots. This year there are several options labeled 'vegan'...Horray for those with special diets and dairy/egg allergies. Sorry, nothing gluten free.

Agreed! There are only a few local Somerville troops -- I think we're two of four troops -- and we would both love your support!

Ah, nice! That's my favorite location :)

Thanks for the info! And just out of curiosity, whom might I contact to find out more information about the troop, if I were going to get my daughter into Girl Scouts, which I'm not sure if I want to do or not, but like I said, out of curiosity?

I would suggest contacting the GS Council at http://www.girlscoutseasternmass.org. Somerville's council rep is Denise. She should be able to help you out!

ETA: It's Denise Dixon, ddixon@girlscoutseasternmass.org, (857)-453-5311

They were inside Davis T station as of 20 minutes ago.

Haha! Yes, I saw them there tonight and laughed at myself for being impatient. ;) If I had just waited a few more hours before posting! But now I know when/where the local troops will be too, so it's all good.

There's also a cookie sale locator you can use should you be hit by future cravings:
