Must Have App: Girl Scout Cookie Finder

It finally arrives tomorrow! Girl Scout Cookie booth season, better known as the "Michelle can't go to Albertson's without leaving with a box of Tag-A-Longs season."   In my defense, Girl Scouts of the USA is one of my sorority's national philanthropy projects, so by buying a ridiculous amount of cookies every year supports the cause. If you love girl scout cookies as much as I do this app is going to be your best friend the next couple of weeks!

The Girl Scout Cookie Finder App is available for both iPhone and Android smartphones.  It uses the GPS data from your phone to find the cookie booth closest to where you're currently at.  You have the option to organize the results by distance or date of the cookie booth.  The results can be displayed as a list or map, too!

Can't remember what cookies you can buy from these cute little entrepreneurs?  The app's got a "meet the cookies" tab for you to find out exactly what's in a Tag-A-Long, Thin Mint, Samoa or any of the other cookies.  You can also share a photo of you and the girl scouts that you purchase your cookies from with the rest of the organization through the app.

Remember, Girl Scout cookies are about a lot more than just a delicious way to indulge yourself!  The scouts sell cookies to learn five life skills: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.  So help these young ladies reach their goal by purchasing the cookies from them directly and not their parents...or Honey Boo Boo!
