Girl Scout sells cookies outside pot shop

WASHINGTON– An enterprising Girl Scout sold some 117 cookies in two hours — outside a medical marijuana dispensary in San Francisco, California.

Girl Scouts all over the country have fanned out to sell the popular treats this winter. Danielle Lei, according to the website Mashable, seems to know right where to go – to where the customers are well, ready to munch.

Medical marijuana is legal in California. According to Mashable, the Girl Scouts of Northern California “don’t have a problem with it.”

“Girls are selling cookies, and they and their parents pick out places where they can make good sales,” Dana Allen, director of marketing and communications for Girl Scouts of Northern California, told Mashable.

“The mom decided this was a place she was comfortable with her daughter being at.” Later, she added, “We’re not telling people where they can and can’t go if it’s a legitimate business.”
