Photos: Girl Scout cookies arrive in Tucson
- Updated
Nearly a half-million Girl Scout cookies were shipped for sale in Southern Arizona this year. Local troop leaders picked up their supply at Bekins Warehouse to sell, for $5 each, through March 4.
The selling season, which runs Jan. 13 through March 4, will bring cookie lovers classic flavors like Thin Mints, Samoas and Do-Si-Dos, as well as the return of the S'mores cookie, which was introduced last year.
To find cookies through a troop, or to locate a cookie booth near you, use the cookie locator at girlscoutssoaz.org. Cookies are $5 a box.
