That's why we've done Masterpiece CookieDough the past few yr... they package it up by studnets order and class and unload it from truck... No muss No fuss... Help that they're only up the freeway from the school (could take 2 hrs in rushhour to go 30 mi) but they do it all.. Prizes , Flyers, Letters, etc our Rep was outstanding-- very high speed lady

Didn't even think about delivery! HUGE as I have a terrible back, sure I could get some dads in to help but you are right- that is a huge thing!!

You know really, the money means nothing when you have customer service to think about!

THANKS Jenn!

Food products typically only give a 40% cut...so something more is always a bonus. BUT...I have to say that service and delivery is very key when dealing with cookie dough. We have a local cookie dough vendor that delivers, unloads the truck, sorts all the cookie dough by flavors in our cafeteria, then sorts the cookie dough by orders. Having a company that actually sorts the orders out - is a HUGE benefit.

We went with another company one year (thought it would be a good thing at the time). The driver wouldn't even unload it from the truck. So here we are - 2 moms taking heavy frozen boxes of cookie dough off a freezer truck. It was horrible!!! Then we had to sort it all. It was truly the worst experience ever!

Anyway...ask lots of questions regarding delivery and sorting. It makes a huge difference when dealing with cookie dough. Also ask how quickly they will fix shortages (there will always be mistakes and if you run out of chocolate chip - how quickly will they get more of it too you). We've always received lots of free extra tubs of everything for these instances. Then when it's all said and done - we have extra dough left to bake for future PTA events...it's great!

Good luck.

Would you believe I have sold about everything but cookie dough!
I need to know what you all out there know about Sally Foster vs. VG2? We are signed up for the Entertainment books and Gift wrap with Sally Foster but asking about the cookies. With VG2 we are signed up to sell the coupons saving cards and cookie dough. Now VG2 is offering 50% and Sally is offering 40%.

Just want to make sure I'm getting the best deal. Any advise is great!!

Thanks friends!
