Here's when Girl Scout Cookie season starts

The starting price for a package is $5.

WASHINGTON — It's... time! 

That's right, it's time to pull out your wallet for those Girl Scout Cookies you have been craving since last year. If you can't think of anything batter than grabbing your favorite order of cookies, don't worry, Girl Scout Cookie season is upon us in the DMV.

And to make things even easier, the cookie sales will also be online. 

Each Girl Scout has a personalized link for their digital cookie website, allowing customers to be able to order online through them.

Girl Scouts Nation's Capital will open in-person booth sales Friday, Feb. 2. An official Girl Scout Cookie Finder app and website will have locations of sales. The 2024 program will end on Saturday, March 10.

The flavors available will be Adventurefuls, Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Trefoils, Dos-Si-Dos and Lemon-Ups at $5 per package. S’mores and gluten-free Toffee-tastic are $6 per package.

"When you buy a box of Girl Scout cookies, you’re supporting Girl Scouts as they learn, grow, and thrive through all of life’s adventures,"  the website states. "Proceeds from the Girl Scout Cookie Program stay local to help support service work, girl-led programs, experiences, and learning all year long within Girl Scouts Nation’s Capital."


Did you know Girl Scout cookies are different based on where you live? Well they are. Girl Scouts of the USA says it licenses two commercial bakeries to make its popular cookies. Those bakeries are ABC Bakers and Little Brownie Bakers. Here's what that means.

It seems like a cardinal sin to eat only one type of Girl Scout Cookie, especially when there are so many to choose from. While the long-time fan favorites like Thin Mints and Samoas sell quickly for a reason, here's your cheat sheet to flavors in case you want to branch out ... or if you're grabbing another round of boxes "for a friend."

  • For the traditionalist: Thin Mints 
  • For the traditionalist who hates chocolate: Trefoils
  • Or for the chocolate lover with a twist: Samoas
  • For the gluten-free and sweet lovers: Toffee-tastics
  • For the ones who prefer fruity over chocolate: Lemon-Ups
  • For the peanut-butter lovers: You have two options, and both are great. If you like rich and chocolateyTagalongs are your go-to. For those who want less sweet but just as nutty, Do-si-do's are on the menu.
