Top Salesman Prize
The top three salesman in each district (with

addition to all other prizes
(Please note that both
Popcorn and Magazine $ count toward this).
Scholarship Program
Scouts selling $2,500 or more qualify for a college scholarship
(Please note that only Popcorn $ counts
toward this).
We’ve added a magazine program to the Fall Sale
that you may utilize in
addition to (but
not in place of)
the popcorn sale. It is a very simple program that is ideal for
customers who cannot eat/do not like popcorn or have nut allergies.
Scouts sell $10 or $20 vouchers to the customer who then completes the
voucher (with over 50 Time, Inc. magazine titles to choose from) & mails
it in a pre-paid envelope. We will have order forms available at the
kickoffs along with vouchers* that you can sign out then to use for Show
& Sell. Commission for this program is also 30% for the unit. Scouts
who sell magazines in addition to popcorn are eligible for a separate
magazine prize program where they could win a laptop computer or an iPod
Shuffle.

We are
happy to report that Trail's End has
taken an industry-leading role in completely removing diacetyl from our
microwave popcorn.
If you have customers who you are not near
enough to be able to deliver to personally, send them to:
www.orderpopcorn.com
Remember,
this
website will be used only after our sale finishes, and will be an
opportunity for those out of reach of our regular sale (or those who want
additional product after the sale) to order popcorn in full case lots during
the remainder of the year and have it shipped directly to them from Trail’s
End. Orders are credited to your unit through the individuals Scout’s
codes issued through the Trail’s End system that the Scouts share with their
customers. The customer then uses this code when ordering on
www.orderpopcorn.com to see that your unit receives credit. We
receive 50% profit from Trail’s End (instead of 70% due to increased
shipping costs) and will split it 25% for the unit and 25% for the council
(no prizes are involved - and youth may not use
orderpopcorn.com sales towards total sales credit). We will send a check or notify you of
deposits into your unit account when Trail’s End issues the profits to us.
