New for 2018
We are excited to announce that the 2018 fall
product program (formerly the QSP Program) not
only has a new name (Treats & Reads), but also has
undergone an exciting revamp. This year’s program
promises to be more streamlined for volunteers and
parents to manage AND more engaging for girls.
The most notable change is a new magazine
vendor (M2 Media Group) and online platform Maggie Moose is this year’s
(M2OS). Ashdon Farms will continue as our nut and mascot and Go Beyond...Soar
candy vendor. Above is this year’s theme.
The M2OS platform is the hub of the Treats & Reads Program for
volunteers and girls/families. Highlights of the platform include:
1. The platform is a single login system allowing troop volunteers
to manage their troop program as well as their own Girl Scout’s
program with just one set of login credentials.
2. Girls will be able to create a Me2 avatar that looks just like them!
With thousands of combinations of facial features, skin tones,
body types, shoes, and accessories, girls will be able to create
an avatar that is truly personal to her.
3. Parents will be able to add their Girl Scout’s in-person orders
directly to the girl’s record on the M2OS platform. No more
having to email/deliver the nut and candy order card or paper
forms to the troop co-leader/troop fall product manager.
The M2OS platform also offers a simplified customer experience,
including:
1. Streamlined product lineup. Customers can order nut and
candy items, magazines, and subscription boxes from a girl’s
website and pay with a credit/debit card.
• Customers can also order nut and candy items in person
from a Girl Scout on her paper order card.
2. More delivery options for customers. Customers can not only
have nut and candy items directly shipped, but also this year
they can opt to order nut and candy items online and have the
Girl Scout deliver the order in December (no shipping fees).
3. Online Care to Share option. Customers can now purchase
items for the Care to Share program (formerly the Share
program) online with a credit/debit card OR in person on a Girl
Scout’s nut and candy order card.

Ways for Girls to Participate
GSOFCT’s fall product sale program—Treats & Reads—is a simple
way for troops to get a head start on funding their treasuries so girls
can enjoy great program activities they help choose. Members of the
community know that purchasing items through the Treats & Reads
Program helps support their local Girl Scout troops. And, this year,
the program is even simpler for customers, girls/families, AND troop
volunteers!
Purchases to support a Girl Scout and her troop can be made in the
following ways:
1. Online—Customers can renew or purchase magazine
subscriptions, nut and candy items, and subscription boxes via
a Girl Scout’s website. NEW THIS YEAR: Customers can purchase
and pay for nut and candy items online and select whether to
have the items direct shipped to them (additional shipping/
handling fees apply) OR to have the girl deliver the items to them
in early December (no additional shipping fees).
2. In person—Customers can order nut and
candy items from a Girl Scout in person on
her nut and candy order card. Customers
pay for the items when the order is placed
(cash or check payable to GSOFCT), and
the Girl Scout will deliver the items in early
December.
3. Care to Share purchases—Customers can purchase a can
(or several!) of Honey Roasted Peanuts to be donated to the
American Red Cross, CT Chapter. NEW THIS YEAR: Care to Share
(formerly known as the Share program) purchases can be made
online OR a Girl Scout’s nut and candy order card.
6
How do girls/families use the M2OS platform to participate?
With the introduction of a new magazine vendor for the 2018
program (M2 Media Group), we also have a new online
platform —M2OS. The M2OS platform is the hub of
the Treats & Reads Program for girls. Once the girl has
registered for this year’s program, she can:
• Create a one-of-a-kind, totally personalized avatar
that looks just like her!
• Set up a website where she can share her/the
troop’s goals, upload a photo, and record a message
in her own voice asking customers for their support.
Once her site is up and running, she can email
customers asking for their support and send the link
to her website to customers via social media (girls
younger than 13 must use a parent’s social media
account).
• Download business cards with the link to her website to
distribute to family members and friends.
• Select, when applicable, reward options.
• Record all nut and candy orders that were taken in person via
the nut and candy order card. Orders that are placed and paid
for online will be automatically recorded on M2OS; only orders
that are taken in person on the nut and candy order card need to
be manually entered.
• Online orders that will be delivered by the girl will be
automatically added to the girl’s record on M2OS; these
orders should NOT be manually entered into a girl’s record.
Getting started with M2OS for girls/families
• The web address for GSOFCT’s M2OS is
www.gsnutsandmags.com/gsofct.
• Girls/families will be able to gain access to the platform by
following the link in the registration email that will be sent on
September 26, 2018.
• Registration emails will be sent to parents/guardians of girls
who are registered for the 2018-2019 membership year.
• If a family does not receive a registration email, they can
go directly to www.gsnutsandmags.com/gsofct beginning
September 26 to get started with this year’s program.
• NOTE: The online platform will open for participants and
customers on September 26.

8The Girl Scout product sale programs, including the Treats & Reads
Program, are skill-building entrepreneurial program for girls. When
girls and troops participate in the product sale programs, girls learn
to work as a team to accomplish goals while building confidence in
their skills and abilities. And did we mention fun? They have a ton of
that, too!
Skill In Girl Scouts and beyond
Goal Setting Setting personal goals teaches Girl
Scouts the steps needed to achieve
their goals AND the planning each
step requires. Being able to set,
achieve, and measure a goal’s
outcome are important professional
skills.
Decision Making Participating in a group decision-
making process allows girls to learn
what types of tasks they are good at
and how their skills can contribute to
successful outcomes.
Money Management Beyond learning the basics of making
change, Girl Scouts learn budgeting
skills when they participate in
decisions about how to use troop
money to fund activities and projects.
People Skills When girls participate in product sales
programs, they learn to ask people
they know AND don’t know for their
support. These experiences translate
into girls being able to advocate for
themselves as they get older.
Business Ethics Girl Scouts learn the importance of
safeguarding money and delivering
product in a timely manner.
Understanding how to gain trust and
keep their word are key life skills.
9Safety
Safety is our first concern when girls are participating in the Treats &
Reads Program. The complete and current Safety Activity Checkpoints

How can customers make a Care to Share
purchase?
This year, customers will be able to make
a purchase for the Care to Share program
either online and pay with a debit/credit
card OR in person on a Girl Scout’s nut
and candy order card. When ordered in
person on the order card, payment (cash
or check payable to GSOFCT) is due at
the time of purchase AND the purchase
will need to be manually added to a girl’s
record on the M2OS platform (online purchases are automatically
recorded on M2OS).
Do Care to Share purchases count toward troop proceeds and girl
rewards?
YES! Care to Share purchases help girls earn higher rewards, and
they help troops earn more proceeds. These purchases also count
toward the Troop Reward! Plus, girls earn special rewards just for
Care to Share purchases (see below). NOTE: Even if an older girl
troop (Junior or older) opts for additional proceeds instead of girl
rewards, the girls will be awarded Care to Share rewards, if earned.

Making sent, how the troop will use its proceeds, etc.)

including all patches, are also viewable online on a girl’s website).

whether or not to take additional proceeds in lieu of girl rewards
(troop proceeds will be 17% of troop’s total sale).
• Daisy and Brownie troops are required to select girl rewards.
12s Troop Rewards and Proceeds

box of chocolates, Care to Share purchase, and magazine and
subscription box purchase earns money for the troop.

17STRONG SENSE OF SELF
Girls have confidence in themselves and their abilities, and
form positive identities.
POSITIVE VALUES
Girls act ethically, honestly, and responsibly, and
show concern for others.
CHALLENGE SEEKING
Girls take appropriate risks, try things even if they might fail,
and learn from mistakes.
HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS
Girls develop and maintain healthy relationships by
communicating their feelings directly and resolving
conflicts constructively.
COMMUNITY PROBLEM SOLVING
Girls desire to contribute to the world in purposeful and
meaningful ways, learn how to identify problems in the
community, and create “action plans” to solve them.
Why do these five outcomes matter?
When girls exhibit these attitudes and skills, they become responsible, productive, caring, and
engaged citizens. But don’t take our word for it! Studies show that the development of attitudes,
behaviors, and skills like confidence, conflict resolution, and problem solving are critical to well-being
and rival academic and technical skills in their capacity to predict long-term positive life outcomes.You can also read
