Stop & Shop helps out Eastern Mass. Girl Scouts
QUINCY, Mass. Stop & Shop has come to the aid of the Eastern Mass. Girl Scouts, by allowing them to sell cookies at all stores in Middlesex, Essex, Barnstable, Plymouth, Bristol, and Norfolk counties.
This year, the Girl Scouts have sold 2.5 million boxes of cookies. Due to harsh economic conditions, sales have fallen 300,000 boxes short of the 2009 goal. Proceeds of all Girl Scout cookie sales fund programs and send underprivileged children to camp.
