Girl Scout cookies are getting more expensive. In some places, at least. Girl Scouts across the country will be selling cookies again between January and April.
At least one New York State chapter, the Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, told troop parents and other members of the community in an email this week that all cookies will be sold for $6 per box this coming cookie season — which takes place from about January to April annually nationwide – up from $5 last year.
Some cookies, like S’mores and Toffee-Tastic, were already priced at $6. But now the higher price will apply to other cookies that the troops sell, including the more classic varieties. “Unfortunately, both LBB and GSHH are not immune to inflation, and costs have risen for all aspects of the business,” the letter reads.
“Each of our 111 Girl Scout councils sets local Girl Scout Cookie prices based on several factors,” a spokesperson for Girl Scouts of the USA told CNN. “In some instances, councils are faced with the tough decision to raise the prices, though prices have remained steady in many areas for a number of years.” Troops across the country announced price increase from $4 to $5 a box in 2014 and 2015.
