Girl Scout Cookies: Where To Buy Near Phoenixville

PHOENIXVILLE, PA —It’s the new year, which means it’s time to stock up on Thin Mints, Samoas and more delicious Girl Scout cookies. The 2019 cookie season launches in January, and this year the Girl Scouts are debuting a new cookie flavor: caramel chocolate chip.

The new cookie has rich caramel, semisweet chocolate chips and a hint of sea salt in a chewy, gluten-free cookie, the Girl Scouts described.

Here’s where you can get the new caramel chocolate chip and other flavors near Phoenixville:

• Redner's at 202 Schuylkill Road (Jan. 19, 26, Feb. 2, 10, 16, 23, March 2)
• Austin's Beverage at 3905 Ridge Pike (Jan. 18-19, March 1)
• Corropolese Italian Bakery at 2809 Egypt Road (Jan. 19, 26, 27)
• Audubon Beverage at 2864 Audubon Drive (Jan. 20, Feb. 3, Feb. 23)
• Via Roma Pizzeria (Feb. 2, Feb. 9, Feb. 10, Feb.16)

In a press release, the Girl Scouts of America touted the benefits of the cookie program. The organization said that girls use the money for themselves and their troop to finance travel, outdoor adventures and STEM programming.

“Many girls put the money toward impactful community projects right in their own backyards, from supporting animal shelters and food banks to working with local and state legislators to change laws,” the press release said. The Girl Scouts also cited a study that found that two out of three girls who participate in the program learn five skills: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.

This year, participating Girl Scouts will have the chance to enter a contest that will highlight and reward “exceptional cookie bosses.”
