It's time for Girl Scout cookie sales. The 42,000 girls of the 3,500 troops of the Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta began taking cookie orders Saturday. Order your boxes for $3.50 each in time for delivery Feb. 11-17.

Girl Scout cookie booths will open on Feb. 17 and cookie sales wrap up in April.

Be on the lookout for a special cookie, Savannah Smiles, to commemorate the Girl Scouts' 100th Year Anniversary this year. The cookie has a tart lemon flavor.

This year, the girls will be armed with mobile credit card machines, and just so that you won't miss them, they have unrolled a Girl Scout Cookie locator app for iPhone and Android.

You can find a cookie booth (once they open on Feb. 17) nearby, using the phone's GPS locator, or search by city or ZIP code. Additionally, you can map a route to the cookie booth once located or share the results with a friend.
