Cookie Sales Information 2017



Cookie training will be held November 14 at the Boys and Girls Club (our usual meeting location: 10515 E. Lakeview Drive, Scottsdale) at either 10 am or 6:30 pm.  Training will last at least an hour and is mandatory for any troops participating in the 2017 cookie sale. Troop sales items will be available at that meeting.

Cookie Manual

Your cookie program manual is NOT a disposable.  They intend to use that same manual for years to come and hand out only the Troop Supplements each year. Therefore, do NOT throw out your cookie manual after the sale is over this year. Think Green!  Click here for the electronic version.

Ebudde Manual 

The Ebudde manual is only available online (to come).

Initial Order Calculator

Don't know how many cookies to order initially. The council has an initial order calculator here.



Cookie Price

Cookie price has gone up to $5 for the Super Six this year. Gluten-free Toffee-tastics and Smores varieties are $6.  Troop proceeds have also increased to 90 cents per box.

FYI. The last cookie price increase was ten years ago.



Cookie Cupboard Link

Please remember to check the spreadsheet before you drive to any cupboard.  Hours can and do change on a daily basis.  In addition, check the "notes tab."  Many cupboards have special instructions and/or will tell you what they have in stock.  Addresses for cupboards were sent via email or may be found in Ebudde.

Be sure to place an order before you head out to cupboard and be sure you know your Ebudde password.  You cannot pick up cookies without your password.

Pima Neighborhood Troop to Troop Transfer Link

If you need cookies or want to trade out extra cases, you have two options.  The first is closer to home and is a list for troops in the Pima and Fountain Hills area. The second will connect you to troops across the valley.
