Girls must sell with another person - Brownies and Juniors with adults, and older girls with a buddy. Daylight hours are best for selling cookies. Selling after dark can be risky. Approaching cars to sell cookies could be dangerous. If a customer offers to lead the way to another potential cookie buyer behind a building or into an alley, the girls should refuse and stay in the open.
Traffic can be a hazard.
Girls should be careful crossing streets and watch for cars backing out of driveways. Girls should be prepared to give a designated adult name and telephone number when asked. Girls should not give out their own telephone number, address, or last name to customers. Carrying a large sum of money around is not a good idea. Arrange for collections to be passed off to an adult frequently.
