MagNut Key Dates | Resources for Sellers

Click the button below on Oct. 1 to get started!

The Fall 2021 MagNut Program begins Oct. 1.

More resources will be added as they become available.

MagNut stands for magazines, nuts, and candy, and Girl Scouts can earn funds for their fun, learn essential skills, and stay connected to their Girl Scout sisters by jumping into the MagNut experience.

It's simple to help your Girl Scout get started with in-person and online orders.

For MagNut volunteers: Before volunteers gain access to their MagNut "command center" hosted on the M2 platform on Sept. 21, please connect with parents and caregivers to make sure all girl members are renewed and registered for the new membership year, which begins the same day as MagNut order taking—Oct. 1.

Personal Online Sales Sites

How it Works

There are two ways that girls can offer MagNut products to friends and family, and she can have fun creating her avatar and managing her store!

Check out these 3 Steps to selling online to get started!

1. Online via the M2 platform

The mobile-friendly platform makes it fun and easy for girls and troops to participate!

Girls can create a unique avatar that looks just like them and even earn their own avatar patch!
Girls build their personalized storefront in M2, send emails to friends and family to purchase nuts/candy and magazines online. Magazines are digital orders, and nuts and candies can be ordered online and shipped directly to customers. If a customer requests girl delivery, coordinate a socially distanced, no-contact drop-off.
Record a video message to inspire customers to support your girl's goals. She could share her plans for proceeds and ideas for great uses for MagNut products. (Pro tip: Nuts and candies are perfect holiday gifts for teachers, school bus drivers, mail carriers, and more!)
Girls can print business cards with their unique, online storefront link to promote their MagNut business.

Customers can also support Operation: Sweet Appreciation and send a treat to the military.

2. In Person

Following local safety guidelines, girls can collect in-person orders from friends, family, and more by using her order card.
Additional printer-friendly order cards are available to share with friends and family to minimize contact. Request a printable order card from your troop leader or troop MagNut manager that features 16 yummy treats, including the collectible bunny tin and vintage uniform tin that make great holiday gifts!
Print and leave door hangers and business cards around the neighborhood to remind everyone that it's time to order.
Help her print out her personalized business cards to leave for those customers who want to browse the magazine selections online or want to order items not on the order card.

Product Offerings

Customers can choose from a variety of great snacks that are perfect for gifts or just to enjoy in person!

Customers can purchase 16 yummy treats on the in-person nut order form, or from an expanded online line-up and have it shipped directly to them.

Program Benefits

Five Skills and Online Learning
Like the Cookie Program, the MagNut Program helps girls to develop five skills they'll use throughout their lives, including goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.

Girls also learn online business skills by setting up their own personalized online sales sites, promoting it to family and friends, and tracking their goals online.

Troop Proceeds
Troops receive 15 percent of all sales. Junior level troops and above can opt-out of individual recognitions to earn an additional 5 percent in proceeds.

Cookie Crossover Bonus Proceeds
Troops can earn additional cookie proceeds during the 2022 Girl Scout Cookie Program by participating in MagNut!

Troops will earn an extra $.02 per package of cookies sold when they achieve a per girl average (PGA) of $185 for the MagNut Program and a PGA of 175 cookie packages.

In addition to the $.02 bonus above, troops will earn an additional $.01 per package of cookies sold (for a total bonus of $.03 per package of cookies) when they achieve a PGA of $275 for the MagNut Program and a PGA of 175 cookies packages.

FUNd Bucks
Troops will receive a $10 FUNd Bucks certificate when they achieve total sales of $250+.

FUNd Bucks can be used as payment for council-sponsored programs, camps, Service Unit Day Camps, purchases at council shops, Camp Trading Posts, and annual Girl Scout membership.
FUNd Bucks are not doubled for camp.
No change will be given, and FUNd Bucks will not be replaced if lost.

Girl Rewards
Girls can earn fun Rewards or can opt for Girl Scout Bucks that may be used for council camps and programs, service unit-sponsored day camps, council shops, and Girl Scout registration fees. Girl Scout Bucks earned through Magnut DOUBLE in value when used toward council-sponsored camps. Click here to view the 2021 Girl Reward selections in the 2021 MagNut Program Family Guide.

Personalized Avatar Patch
This year you can choose the background for your avatar; the expedition ship or research dome and the color of her snowsuit! Earn this avatar patch by sending 18 emails, selling 4 magazines, and selling a total of 30 nut/candy items in-person or online. Patches will be sent directly to you once earned.

Personalized Cookie Crossover Patch
Earn this fun avatar by creating your avatar and sending 18+ emails during the MagNut program and selling 250 boxes of cookies during the 2022 Cookie program. Your personalized patch will be sent directly to you in late Spring.

Super Seller Status
In addition to earned recognitions, any girl who sells $1,000+ during the MagNut program will also receive an invitation to the exclusive Super Seller Event on Sunday, June 5, 2022, at the Chadwick in Wexford, PA.
