girl scout cookies for sale west chester pa 2019

Hello, West Chester, we have important things to discuss this morning. Where do you get your Girl Scout cookies?

I have been diligently entering Giant, Acme and most other local retail-establishments head-down lately, trying to avoid making eye-contact with the 9-year-old girls manning the cookie table. Sad, I know. Until, as always, I succumb to temptation and convenience – no longer can I hide behind my constant lack of cash – and buy a box or three.

So, since you’re eventually going to give in (or in my case go back for more), here’s what you need to know about this year’s batch of Girl Scout Cookies.
