The Girl Scouts' Cookie Chaos: A Seasonal Saga.

Girl Scouts' limited-edition Raspberry Rally cookie, offered exclusively online, saw high demand that exceeded supply, leaving scouts and parents to deal with frustrated customers. The cookie's popularity may have been due to a new online-only ordering system and the hype created by the limited-time offer. The cookie was not available at scouts' cookie booths. The supply chain issues, compounded by local labor shortages and a weather-related power outage, constrained supply for other cookies as well. Scout parents responsible for ordering the cookies have been left to deal with the fallout, on top of the usual job of helping scouts through the cookie-selling season.
