Girl Scout Cookies Coming To Wayne: Where To Find Cookie 'Booths'

WAYNE, NJ — Spring always welcomes a few guarantees: baseball, Tax Day and Girl Scout Cookies. Girl Scouts of the USA got creative with sales the past two years, with virtual cookie "booths" and drive-thru stands. But beginning Saturday, plenty of booths will emerge across the region as the Girls Scouts of Northern New Jersey begin their cookie season.

Booth sales will take place from Saturday through April 24 this year. Favorites such as Thin Mints and Samoas will return, alongside a new cookie: Andventurefuls. The Girls Scouts describe the concoction as "an indulgent, brownie-inspired cookie with caramel-flavored crème and a hint of sea salt."
