Reach A Grand And Have A Grand Time -- Elite 1000+
You'll be on top of the world at this year's Elite 1000+ event. Girls who have sold more than 1,000 boxes of cookies will enjoy crafting, jewelry making, scrapbooking, eating, laughing, movies, and dancing until dawn at the Elite 1000+ Superstar Sleepover at the Sheraton in Downtown Los Angeles.
Spend the night in the Polaris Room at the very top of this fabulous hotel, which features a 360° view of the City of Angels. Enjoy dinner and breakfast in the exclusive "Miranda's Café." Enjoy sunset and sunrise as you celebrate your remarkable accomplishment. It's going to be an overnight overload.
Parents of younger girls may attend and assist at this event (for a small fee). Other adult volunteers may opt to stay in the hotel at a reduced rate.
Golden Opportunity
Be sure to use the Golden Spoon coupons (limited areas) as a bundling incentive. If customers buy three or more boxes, they get a coupon for a free small Golden Spoon frozen yogurt with a Girl Scout Cookie topping. The coupons expire April 16.

Girl Scout cookie updates
The cookies are coming, the cookies are coming!
Cookie deliveries begin this week! Can you feel the excitement in the air? Check GreenBeans for your particular cookie pick-up date, time, and location.
This issue of "Miranda's Panda-gram" is about Cookie Cupboards, Cookie Billboards, new Cookie Texting, and more! GSGLA is providing tools and resources, but we've got you covered for promotion, too. We are driving customers to you in a number of ways, so make sure your troop is signed up for cookie boothing via the GreenBeans Booth Scheduler! There are still thousands of cookie booth sites available and you can select any GSGLA location. Boothing begins February 26!
Look for more Panda-grams in your email for brief e-updates about Cookie Program resources.
Tip of the week: Tweet, post, and talk about your cookie booths. Get the word out!
Cookie Cupboards
You know you want more. It's easy to get more cookies at the cookie cupboards. This year you can go to any GSGLA cookie cupboard you want. That's right, you can get more product and fast, friendly service at any cookie cupboard in the GSGLA jurisdiction. Cookie exchanges will be available at most cupboards March 1-15.
Please make a cupboard reservation through GreenBeans to help us serve you better.
Cookie Billboards!
Our name is in lights! There are 10 fabulous GSGLA billboards going up all over LA County and outlying areas, including a digital billboard!
These larger-than-life signs include the faces of some of our very own Girl Scouts alongside one of three different cookie messages: Buy a Box, Get a Box, and Want a Box?
In addition to billboards, there are bus signs and junior posters (smaller billboards) all over our communities, and coffee sleeves, too. Next time you order your favorite hot beverage at your favorite local coffee shop or cafe, you might be lucky enough to get a GSGLA coffee sleeve!
As they are confirmed, we will share a list of billboard locations in a future Panda-gram. Here's where you can find cookie sleeves beginning Monday, February 22: GSGLA Coffee Sleeve Campaign
In the meantime, if you see one, take a picture or let us know or just smile knowing you're part of a great program and a great message.
U cn txt 4 cookies 2! LOL!
Step into the future! This year, we're introducing text technology to the Cookie Program. GSGLA Cookie fans (and fiends) can simply text their zip code to gs@girlscoutsla.org and they will get a message back listing two nearby cookie booth locations for that day (beginning February 26).
The system is up and functional, so try it now!
The text address can receive zip code messages from e-mail addresses in addition to text messages from cell phones and other mobile devices. Customers looking for cookies can also go to the GSGLA website and click on the Cookie Locator to see all booths within a zip code.
Remember, if you're not using the GreenBeans Boothing Scheduler, your cookie booth cannot be included in any of these cookie finder technologies.
GSGLA Cookie Stardom on KTLA!
The Thin Mints are ready for their close-ups! GSGLA Girl Scouts and all the delicious cookie varieties will be on the KTLA Morning Show Thursday, February 25. We will also be doing a simultaneous live remote on GO Country 105 FM! Superstar fabulous!

Girl Scout Cookies are the Tops with Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt
Maybe it's the Olympic Fever going around, but GSGLA is going for the Gold with the Girl Scout Cookie Program! We have teamed with Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt for fantastic toppers and a fantastic offer. Golden Spoon locations in the GSGLA area will feature Girl Scout Cookie toppings on their yogurt varieties. Mmmmm!
In addition, some cookie booths near Golden Spoon store locations will offer coupons* for a free frozen yogurt to customers that buy three or more boxes of Girl Scout Cookies! What a great way to promote Cookie Bundles!
*in select Cookie Boothing Kits
Decorate Your Cookie Car!
We have another way for you to promote your Girl Scout Cookie Program. Every Cookie Cupboard is equipped with car chalk for you to make your car a mobile cookie booth. Make it a troop effort and decorate your car, SUV, minivan, etc. with designs and cookie slogans such as "It's Girl Scout Cookie Time! Visit www.girlscoutsLA.org!" Then get ready for lots of friendly waves and honks!
Car chalk may only be available during cookie cupboard hours.
