Girl Scouts Going Digital To Sell Tasty Treats In Time For National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend
CHICAGO (CBS) -- The pandemic doesn't have to keep you from eating your Thin Mints and Samoas.
The Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana are gearing up for National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, from Feb. 19 through Feb. 21.
The annual event honors the achievements of young entrepreneurs. This year, with many scouts going fully digital to sell their cookies, there's a lot to celebrate.
Starting Thursday, the Girl Scouts are teaming up with Grubhub nationwide. You can order cookies for pick-up or delivery through the app or on the Girl Scouts website.
If you don't know of a local troop nearby, you can visit the Girl Scout cookie virtual pop-up shop and order from a troop closest to your zip code.
All proceeds stay local and Grubhub is waiving its fees.
It's OFFICIALLY Cookie time!
