In addition to the old favorites like Thin Mints, Do-Si-Dos and Samoas, there's a new cookie this year.

Savannah Smiles are described as "bite-sized, lemon-wedge cookies dusted in powedered sugar and bursting with zesty lemon flavor."

Lynch said they're shaped like a smile in honor of Girl Scouts' 100th birthday.

"A lot of people like them," she said of Savannah Smiles.
