Girl Scouts of Central Texas is giving you yet another way to get Girl Scout Cookies this year.
Now you can order them through the Favor app.
Already, across the country you can order them through GrubHub. In Texas, Girl Scouts is offering Favor as well.
In Central Texas, cookie season is through Feb. 28.
Both GrubHub and Favor will pick up the cookies at a local cookie booth and deliver them to your doorstep.
Because of the pandemic, cookie booths in Travis County have been either drive-thru or by curbside delivery. Girl Scouts also have been setting up booths in their driveways or going door-to-door to sell cookies. You can find where local booths are at gsctx.org.

A Thin Mint and a pint of beer, anyone?

Girl Scout cookie season is upon us, which means it’s time to stock up on our favorite cookies (anyone else love themself a good Thin Mint?) and make them last long enough until they’re on sale again.
The best part about eating a Girl Scout cookie is arguably dunking it into a cold glass of milk or enjoying it with a hot cup of coffee which got us thinking, what is the best thing to drink while enjoying each Girl Scout cookie?

GREENSBURG Anyone who knows a Girl Scout knows it’s time to continue a tradition that is as steeped in history as it is in divine indulgence – Girl Scout cookie time. As local Girl Scout Service Troop 702 sets up their drive-thru booth in the Greensburg Staxx parking lot, a died-in-the-wool American tradition continues with modern trappings to mitigate modern risk.
Girl Scout cookies were first peddled by an individual Girl Scout unit, the “Mistletoe Troop” in Muskogee, Oklahoma, in December 1917 at a local high school.
The Girl Scouts of Central Texas group, which includes Erath County s young entrepreneurs, kicked off its cookie sale on Wednesday and it runs through Feb. 28.
Tables are already set up with stacks of cookies and wee little Girl Scouts hiding behind them, honing their sales skills and testing your gullibility. Despite the pandemic, they re still out at some regular spots, but there are some online options and delivery. Asking Facebook is the best bet on finding out specifics on that.
We spend a lot of time thinking of ways to support the local economy and fulfill our own vices. This might be our best marriage of those two things yet: Here we look at some of our favorite Girl Scout cookies and local beers.
