Girl Scout Cookie
Prices to Remain $4
November 5, 2015
Some national media have run stories about Girl Scout cookie rates
increasing to $5.00 per box.
Dayton, Ohio — If you’re a cookie lover living in the Girl Scouts of
Western Ohio council area, we have good news—our cookie prices will
remain the same as last year at $4.00/box with the exception of our
gluten-free variety, Toffee-Tastic, which is $5.00/box and available in
limited quantities as it is a pilot this year.
Girl Scout Cookie season begins on January 8, 2016, with girls taking
in-person and online orders through Digital Cookie, a program that
provides girls with personalized cookie websites where they can
initiate sales, take online orders for cookies, and accept credit card
payment. Traditional booth sales begin March 4 and run through March
27, 2016.
One hundred percent of the money raised through the Girl Scout Cookie
program (every penny after paying the baker) stays right here in Ohio
and is used for volunteer and girl support, troops and rewards,
council-sponsored events for the girls, financial assistance, camp
programming and facilities, Girl Scout awards programs (Gold, Silver,
Bronze), and member support.
Packages of Girl Scout Cookies sell for different prices in different
areas of the country. Each of the 112 local Girl Scout councils has the
right to set their own price, based on their needs and knowledge of the
local market.
