Munchies? Girl Scout Boosts Cookie Sales by Setting Up in Front of San Francisco Marijuana Club
A girl scout was able to greatly boost cookie sales by setting up shop in front of a San Francisco pot club.
Mashable.com reported that Danielle Lei, 13, sold 117 boxes outside The Green Cross in a two hour period, 37 more boxes than she sold in front of a Safeway the next day. "Any patients at The Green Cross with the munchies didn't stand a chance," Mashable reported.
