Frequently Asked Questions

*What is “Take Order”?* The “Take Order” method is just like it sounds. The Scout goes door to door with a Take Order Form (or Mom and Dad take order forms to work). The Customer writes his/her order on the form. The Scout delivers the popcorn in December and collects the money from the Customer. *Show and Deliver (Starter Kit):* The Scouts were given an allotted amount of popcorn at the beginning of the sale to have product on-hand as they took orders. This is also referred to as the “Show-n-Deliver” method. Some customers may prefer to receive their order now instead of waiting until early December. This will allow the Scout to complete the sale on the spot. The customer receives the order and the Scout receives payment so there is no need to return in November. However, a follow-up visit later in November to see if they liked the product and wish to order more could result in additional Take Order sales. For Pack 207, this year’s Starter Kit is will consist of: *Do I have to take a Starter Kit?* It is highly suggest, as you will sell much more popcorn, but you can sell using only the Take Order method if you like. If you are interested in a Starter Kit, please be sure to sign up for one at the September Pack Meeting or contact Peggy, by Sept 10. Prizes, Awards, and Scout Dollars will be based on a Scout’s Total Sales (Starter Kit Sales and Take Order Sales combined). However, we do not want to buy popcorn for orders that have already been delivered. Please be sure to keep the Starter Kit Sales separate from the Take Order Sales when turning in your orders at the end of the sale. When is Money Due? Money from the Starter Kit sales (and any unsold popcorn) needs to be turned in by the end of the popcorn sale (Nov 7 ). No money is due when the Scout first receives his Starter Kit popcorn. For Take Order Sales, the Scout will receive payment from customers as he delivers the popcorn in December. Money from Take Order Sales is due by (Dec 13). What about checks? Customers can pay by cash or check. Checks should be made payable to Pack 207. In the memo please write your child's name and be sure the person's phone number is on the check. However, to make it easier when turning in your popcorn money, please write one check to Pack 207 for the cash you received.
