How to Buy Girl Scout Cookies Without Knowing a Scout
By the Get More Cookies family · Published · Sources reviewed 2026-10-09
You can buy Girl Scout Cookies even if you don’t know a Scout. Try the official Cookie Finder for a nearby booth, or use a Scout’s shared link for online ordering. Check that her sale is open and that delivery works for you.

First, decide how you want to shop
For a few boxes you want to pick up, search the official Cookie Finder with your ZIP code. For an order you want shipped, look for a participating Scout’s online store. These are different routes: a nearby booth listing doesn’t mean that booth takes online pickup orders, and a distant Scout can’t necessarily deliver to your home in person.
Make sure the link goes to the right Scout
A family website can introduce the Scout and explain the sale, but the checkout destination matters. Check the Scout name, current product selection, delivery choices, and total on the ordering page. If a shared link opens a closed store, return to the family’s current update or the official finder. Avoid treating a months-old social post as proof that a sale is still open.
Meet the family you’re supporting
Get More Cookies is our family’s site for Addie and Ellie, a Daisy and a Brownie in Southeast Wisconsin. Their shared link alternates between their two storefronts. The name on the checkout page tells you which sister receives credit for that purchase. You can meet them and see their real troop adventures on our homepage before deciding whether to support their sale.
A little planning helps
Write down the flavors and quantities you want before opening checkout. Decide whether shipping or an available local option makes more sense for your address. Save the confirmation after payment so you have the order number and support instructions together. You don’t need to send payment information or a home address through this family website.
If there’s no active seller yet
Bookmark a seller you would like to support and check the official finder during the local season. A closed sale isn’t fixed by repeatedly refreshing the same link. Our ordering-status section is the place to check the sisters’ latest update; national cookie-season news doesn’t establish their opening date.
Quick answers
Do I have to join Girl Scouts to buy cookies?
No membership is needed to shop a participating cookie sale. Follow the purchasing instructions in the live storefront.
Can I support Addie or Ellie if I have never met them?
Yes—when their sale opens and an eligible delivery option is available. Start with our current ordering update.
