Clever Girl Scout Peddles Cookies Outside a Cannabis Dispensary
In an ingenious twist on traditional cookie sales, a resourceful Girl Scout in Portland decided to set up shop right outside a local cannabis dispensary. Gone are the days when these pint-sized entrepreneurs would merely knock on doors; today, they’ve adapted to the times and are now capitalizing on the sweet cravings of marijuana enthusiasts.
This enterprising young scout, who remains unnamed, spent an afternoon at the Foster Buds Marijuana Dispensary, quickly gathering a crowd eager to sample her delicious cookies. Her aunt reported that sales skyrocketed within moments of setting up the table, and the dispensary even joined in the fun by offering discounts to customers who brought in a box of cookies purchased from the young salesperson.
While the Girl Scouts organization may not officially support selling cookies in front of cannabis shops, as her aunt noted to KATU, “it’s not against the rules.” However, a spokesperson from the Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington had a different take, stating, “If a minor cannot enter a premises unaccompanied, then she should not sell Girl Scout Cookies in front of the premises.”
This isn’t the first time a savvy scout has tapped into the munchie market. Back in 2014, a Girl Scout named Samantha sold an impressive 117 boxes in just two hours outside a San Francisco dispensary, becoming an overnight sensation and inspiring others to follow suit. However, many adults find it concerning that children are becoming aware of the “munchies,” with some commenters on KATU’s Facebook page calling the Portland sales “inappropriate” and suggesting it reflects poor judgment on the parents’ part.
Regardless of differing opinions on marijuana, it’s tough to deny that this clever marketing move makes sense. With the legalization of cannabis in various places, it’s only logical to leverage the cravings for tasty treats that often accompany it. If you’re not lucky enough to live near a cannabis dispensary, you can easily find local Girl Scouts selling cookies using a handy tool on the Girl Scouts website. And if you find yourself in Portland, you know exactly where to go. Though it’s unlikely this enterprising young lady will earn a merit badge shaped like a cannabis leaf, it’s hard to fault her for such a clever strategy.
