I haven't seen it before, so wanted to ask some other people about it. We all know the Girl Scouts are selling Girl Scout Cookies now, as could see the booth. Only saw 1 troop and went to several stores today.
My question the other door had Boy Scouts at Von's what are they selling? I didn't go in, as the lines have been to long, so went shopping at other stores. I have never seen both doors with different scouts.

I don't think I've ever seen both at one store before. Good for them though for sharing

I was surprised, as it was the first time to see the Boy Scouts at a store. It was nice to see the scouting programs are selling products in the community.

I was surprised to know Boys Scouts and Girl Scouts are selling popcorn and apples. They surely are made for better things. As boys scouts we camped in the forests, climbed mountains, swam in rivers and learned ways and values to serve the society and the country.

I'm not sure what they are selling here. I'll go look at the Boy Scout Site later tonight. The Boy Scouts have been collecting items for animals at the shelter for several years in this area.
The Girl Scouts are selling cookies and do across the United States. This is how they raise funds for trips and the troop I was the leader used the money for camping.

@Fishmomma ~I have never seen Boy Scouts sell anything. I love getting Girl Scout cookies and supporting the organization. Scouting is a worthwhile cause.

Boy Scouts normally knock on my door several times a year selling something. I wasn't sure if they stopped selling or have changed when selling, as nobody has knocked lately.
I'm a Life Time Girl Scout and was a Girl Scout Troop Leader years ago. I agree worthwhile cause.

You know oddly, this year, I saw no scouts selling cookies. I guess I was in the wrong places, at the wrong times.

I haven't seen many scouts sell this year and only at one store. Its really odd. I'm not sure if the scouts are just going to their parents work place to sell or selling at their school.

I know they sell popcorn; however, somebody else mentioned apples. I hope they are selling apples, as I would buy.

Wow, I will have to try next weekend, as I certainly would buy apples. Thanks for the help, as normally the Boy Scouts knock on my door.
