Investing In Today = Success for Tomorrow
Fall is just around the corner. Girls will be out October 8 - 23 selling magazines, nuts, and chocolates to raise funds for their troops. All troops are encouraged to participate to get start up funds and for girls to gain skills in goal-setting, money management, working as a team, and public speaking.
For questions about the 2011 Fall Sale, please email productsales@gslakesandpines.org.
Special Note: Coupons for magazine orders can no longer be accepted by QSP due to increased publisher restrictions.


Goal Setting: Engage all girls in the goal setting process. New this year, girls will be able to personalize their online page on the email site to earn the Goal Achiever Patch beginning October 3. Girls can add a picture, track their online sales goal, and invite facebook friends to participate! Turn in the Goal Certificate to your troop leader by October 24.

Additional forms for the Fall Product Sale:
ACH Debit Authorization (Optional)
Since the Troop Answer Book was printed, we have made a change in the procedure for troops to give the council permission for ACH debits to pay for their product and magazine orders.
Troops DO NOT need to mail in the ACH form prior to the Fall Sale. Instead, each troop is required to manually enter their bank name, routing number and account number into Nut-e prior to October 7. Troops that fail to do this by November 11 will not be allowed to pick up product until this information is entered online. Service Units will be notified of troops affected by this by November 14.
For security reasons only the troop will have the capability to enter this information. However, your service unit manager will be able to enter this information for troops who do not have computer access.
