It was one excuse after another. “I don’t hear anything for a week or two, and then she messages me to coordinate “delivery” but doesn’t want to come to my house because it’s too far.”
So, she tried to get Girl Scout mom to meet her halfway, but Girl Scout mom didn’t even bother to get back to her.
An entire month goes by, and still no cookies. So is this lady a terrible person for filing a ticket with the Girls Scouts of the USA and blocking the girl’s mother on Facebook?
“I don’t want her innocent daughter to get in trouble or whatever happens with that (I’m not sure how that works?), but I also don’t want to be out $35 and cookie-less.”
Read the original post on Reddit here.
Dear Cookie-less, You are not terrible. You did the right thing. Sure, she could have run out of the flavors you ordered, but she could coordinate with another scout mom or troop leader and get the missing cookies.
After looking at the Digital Cookie Support platform on the Girls Scouts of the USA website, it says, “in-person delivery requires approval by a girl’s parent. If your request is approved, you’ll receive an email. If your order is not approved within 5 days, your order will default to the secondary option you chose during checkout, and you’ll receive a notification.”
You paid for the cookies, and the mom should have delivered them to your doorstep. This mom is not representing the ethics and the standards of the Girls Scouts of the USA, and she’s setting a poor example for her daughter. It’s not the kid’s fault.
