[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the DC area:

$0.98  Troop's proceeds (average based on various earning opportunities)

$1.25 Cost of product, transportation, promotion, Service Unit proceeds, rewards, administrative costs and debt. ($2.25 is the related costs for specialty cookies retailing at $6.00 per package)

$2.77 Supports direct service to girls and adults
--Financial assistance for girls
--Camp programs and eight camp properties
--Council-wide girl programs
--Training for adult volunteers
--Marketing, technological, and web support
--Six convenient office locations and staff support for our volunteers and troops

I think our troop gets 85c per box because our girls insist on getting the prizes and were not selling huge amounts.[/quote]

Thanks for your information! Is it possible to opt out of the prizes and get more $$ for the troop? Is all this information online somewhere?[/quote]

[b]DP here, the young scouts are not allowed to opt out of the cookie sales rewards. [/b] I believe it's Cadettes and older who can do so, and the decision must be unanimous within the troop (no prizes for anyone).  Your cookie parent has this info. [/quote]

My daughter's in her second year of Daisies, and they've opted out of prizes both years.[/quote]
