Fall Product Sales 2010
The Fall Product Sales Program runs once girls receive their materials in September until October 24, 2010 and includes QSP "Be A Reader" and the Nut/Candy Program.
What is the QSP Program?
QSP, a division of Time Inc, sponsors a Girl Scout money earning program that promotes literacy through the sale of magazine subscriptions and books.. 45% of the value of each order is retained by GSCB and helps to subsidize Girl Scout programs. 15% of each order stays with the Troops/Groups for Troop/Group activities. All orders are backed by a guarantee of service by QSP. Customers do not become part of a mailing list through QSP. Any new magazine subscriptions will start 12 - 14 weeks after the orders are processed in November.
Over 1,000 magazines are offered this year, including dozens of children's magazines. Some magazine subscriptions offer a free gift or a second year’s subscription for free. Click here to order magazines online! (Proceeds from online orders will benefit the Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay.) Books round out the vast array of choices.
How it works:
Ordering/Renewing your family and friends’ favorite magazines.
Your Girl Scout contacts family and friends asking them to renew or subscribe to their favorite magazines. She also has the option to contact family and friends via email through QSP’s online magazine ordering system. Your Girl Scout will earn Troop/Group proceeds and recognitions for each subscription purchased.
Friendly Referrals using Address Adventure
Your Girl Scout can ask family and friends living in other communities to help support Girl Scouts by completing the special referral coupons in the mail-out booklets. QSP will mail information which shows them how to purchase their favorite publications at the same low prices. Your Girl Scout will earn the "Create an Opportunity" and peace coin purse for 10 address coupons. The Troop/Group will earn 30¢ per coupon. (Maximum 11 address coupons per girl.) Your friends and family members will receive two mailings. QSP does not database these addresses, they simply make a copy of the referral coupon. Even if the person orders from the first mailing, they will receive a second mailing

What is the Nut/Candy program?
The sale of nuts and candy is a component of the Fall Product Sales Program. Girl Scouts will be able to offer customers the option to purchase a wide range of delicious and attractively packaged nuts and candy at affordable prices. This is a program to share with your family and friends, and because they will arrive in the Service Unit between November 30 - December 2, products will be delivered prior to the holidays and make excellent, low cost gifts!
New this Year
A 3 pack gift box of specialty nut products and a reusable flip top container of mini coated pretzel balls.
