Girl Scouts of northern Illinois, NW Indiana selling cookies from mobile van in Chicago

CHICAGO (WLS) -- The Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and northwest Indiana are hitting the streets and rolling out a mobile cookie van, in an effort to make cookie buying safer during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It started traveling around Chicagoland last weekend and is in the city of Chicago Tuesday. The mobile van allows customers to order their favorite sweet treats in-person while remaining socially distanced.
