Hankering for a Samoa or Thin Mints? You're in luck: According to the schedule put out by the local Girl Scout Council, there will be cookie sales at
Jewel (Montrose & Broadway) between 11am and 5pm:
- Saturday, February 25th
- Saturday, March 10
- Saturday, March 17
The Girl Scouts have been getting a lot of flack lately, everything from being
boycotted for allowing transgender kids to participate, to some
silly legislator in Indiana claiming they are a "tactical arm of Planned Parenthood." Buy accordingly.
Yep, I'm going to buy plenty of boxes of these treats as a "protest," also to honor the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts, of which I used to be a member.
ReplyDeleteAnd Catholics - don't use Lent as an "excuse" for not buying. Most GS cookies will freeze beautifully until Easter (especially the mints).
I will buy as many boxes as I can to honor this great organization that took me through girlhood, and as a form of protest against the loons and bigots attacking it.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. I was at that Jewel today at 2:00 and I didn't see the Scouts there.
ReplyDeleteMaux - They were inside the front door, right by the produce dept.
ReplyDeleteI believe next weekend is the last weekend for in-store cookie sales, just in time for the 100th birthday party on the 12th.
