Girl Scouts Troop Draws Buzz After Runaway Cookie Sales Outside Cannabis Shop
The Girl Scouts canceled a second cookie sale outside a Mount Laurel cannabis dispensary after national disapproval despite strong local customer support, the owner said.
- Two weeks ago, a local Girl Scout troop sold Thin Mints and Caramel deLites outside Daylite Cannabis, and their planned return on Friday was canceled, Cassidy said.
- Regional council officials countered that no formal approval existed and said they do not know how the miscommunication occurred, Cassidy said.
- Local reaction was mixed on social media, though many praised the sales and entrepreneurship of girls accompanied by chaperones at Daylite Cannabis.
- Leadership disavowed the practice and reiterated guidance after the episode became a national headline, prompting concern from Girl Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts of Central and South Jersey.
- With recreational cannabis in New Jersey since 2022 and over 200 dispensaries, past incidents in San Diego 2018 and Michigan 2021 set a precedent, said Cassidy.
