Last year, we were scheduled in front of the local supermarket on the day before a HUGE snowstorm was predicted for our area. They expected us to get more than a foot of snow overnight. So every single person in the entire town was in the grocery store buying milk, bread etc. The troop sold over 1,000 boxes of cookies that day!!!! So ..... maybe disneygals is right and that cold weather will be helpful!
P.S. We saw one troop that took one of those large coffee urns and boiled hot water and then made hot chocolate for people with the instant chocolate powder. Their sales went through the roof!
