What does a Girl Scout get for selling cookies?

Each Girl Scout council in America determines their product sale guidelines and what the Girl Scouts in their council receive for selling cookies.

Each Girl Scout council retains some of the cookie profit and each troop receives some of the profit.

Girl Scout councils also offer some type of incentives for selling various amounts of cookies. These incentives might be things like stuffed animals, key chains, toys, etc. The incentives might also include some form of credit which the girls may use for Girl Scout activities or might be an additional amount of profit for the troop.

There are various awards and participation patches Girl Scouts may receive from Girl Scout cookie sales.
