Cookie Sale Program — $$$ Payment and Direct Deposit Information $$$

Cookie Price

The Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains has set the price at $3.50 per box. THIS IS THE ONLY PRICE YOU MAY CHARGE FOR COOKIES. The price of each box, as well as the licensed baker of the cookies and sale dates, can vary between the Girl Scout councils surrounding us. Our cookies are produced by Little Brownie Bakers.

Money Collection

It is Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains policy to accept money from a customer ONLY at the time of delivery. Please stress to your Girl Scouts not to take money from customers at the time of order-taking. The one exception is when a customer ONLY orders Gift of Caring Cookies, which you will not be delivering to them.

Direct Deposit

  • All troops are encouraged to use the direct deposit system. For your convenience, Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains has Product Sales Bank Accounts at three banks:  Citizens Bank, Chittenden Bank, and Merchants Bank.
  • When making deposits, carefully count the cash and endorse checks in the manner required by your bank.  The teller will validate the copies of your deposit slips and give them to you with a white bank receipt.  You will submit a validated copy of your deposit slips (or if deposit slip is not validated, submit the white bank receipt also) with your final paperwork. Safeguard your copies of deposit slips and receipts.
  • When making your deposits to pay the Amount Due Council (from the eBudde Troop Sale Report), deposit as many of the checks received in payment first, without overpaying.  In this way, the troop will not be responsible for returned checks.  Deposit all cash payments into the troop checking account.  Pay the remainder of the Amount Due Council with a troop check.
  • If you decide to deposit all cookie receipts into your troop checking account, and to pay your entire cookie bill with a troop check, YOU accept all responsibility for returned checks deposited into the troop account.

Helpful Hints

DO NOT deposit your Troop Proceeds into the Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains Product Sales Accounts.  The eBudde Troop Sales Report will show your Troop Proceeds and Amount Due Council.  Deposit only the Amount Due Council into the Council Product Sale Sales Accounts.  No refunds will be made for overpayments of $25 or less.

Avoid busy or rush-hour times at the bank. To save time, check with your bank to see how they require each check be endorsed and endorse each check before you go to the bank.

Before you leave the bank, check your receipt to be sure it agrees with your deposit slip and that the teller has validated your deposit slips (the validation is printed right on the deposit slip).

Banks only verify the cash at the time of the deposit.  Later in the day they verify the accuracy of the checks attached.  Occasionally they will discover an error, and will send us an adjustment for a particular deposit.  We will inform you of these so you may adjust your payment to the Council accordingly.
