[Bobwhite Blather] Protect your popcorn sales - and your customers

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

There's a new item at Bobwhite Blather: 'Protect your popcorn sales - and your
customers'

It's that time of year again - popcorn season! And soon, our Scouts will be
knocking on doors, standing on street corners and in front of grocery stores
offering the tasty treats of popcorn and other goodies as a thank-you gift to
our friends and neighbors for their financial support of Scouting in our
communities, making it possible for our young people to enjoy fun and adventure
while the values of Scouting are instilled.. (And you thought they were just
selling popcorn!)

And just as much as our Scouts struggle to make the sale, we struggle with the
finances. We guesstimate how much of each product to order, find some place to
store it when it arrives, allocate it by den or patrol, and take back the unsold
inventory. We also have to deal with the money, which could be the most daunting
aspect of all.

In the past, most people paid cash or wrote a check, but it has become more of a
cashless world, and Scouting needs to keep up with the times.
