It's Girl Scout Cookie season and everyone's got a case of the munchies.

One enterprising Girl Scout decided to take advantage of the moment. On Saturday, the scout set up shop outside Foster Buds marijuana dispensary in Portland, Oregon. While nearly everyone experiences a craving for Tagalogs or Thin Mints at some point in their life, pot smokers are a particularly ... engaged demographic.

As the girl scout, who remained unnamed, made her pitch, the girls' aunt supervised nearby. Within minutes, the two had multiple customers appear at their table.

"The Girl Scouts organization said they don't condone this, but it's not against the rules," the scout's aunt told local news agency KATU.

The Girl Scouts of Oregon and Western Washington didn't shut down the stall, but they did offer some very strong words of advice.

"If a minor cannot enter a premises unaccompanied, she should not sell Girl Scout Cookies in front of the premises," a spokesperson said.

Still, that didn't stop Foster Buds Dispensary from creating their very own Girl Scout Cookie special. If customers came in with a box of cookies, Foster Buds would offer their own "special" Girl Scout Cookie strain at a discount on their Instagram

 

The scout hopes to use proceeds from the sale to fund horseback riding camp.
