We’re in the final week of the popcorn sale and it’s time to wrap some things up. What you need to do depends on the method(s) you used to sell popcorn.
Show & Sell
The sales from the Kroger popcorn booth have been entered in the popcorn system (thanks, Cheryl!) at $38/hour. You have nothing further to do.
Show & Deliver
For the people who took popcorn to sell, you need to settle up. This should be done by Friday, November 6. You can give the Popcorn Kernel money, unsold popcorn or a combination of the two. Any unsold popcorn must be in excellent condition.
The Kernel would prefer if you would deposit any cash collected in your own account and write a check (to “Pack 106”) but this is not absolutely necessary.
Please contact the Kernel to arrange a time to stop by. Cheryl (Mrs. Kernel) can also help you out. They can also tell you how much you owe if you’ve lost track of that.
You don’t need to enter sales in the popcorn system with this method. The Kernel will enter your sales total as soon as possible and let you know when this is done. You should not make a prize selection online until your Show & Deliver sales are entered.
Take Order
There are still several steps for the traditional sales method. If you have taken popcorn orders for December delivery, you should enter those orders online by Friday, November 6. You will need your username and password for the popcorn system. You will receive this information shortly from your den leader. Alternatively, send an email (with scout name and den number, please) to the Popcorn Kernel (popcorn@fisherspack106.org) and he can send you your info.
Our volunteer tester (thanks, Bill!) reports that entering information in the popcorn system works the same as last year. Use the web address, username and password provided. You can copy and paste all those items from the pdf document you will receive. Note that the URL will not work if you add “www”. You must select a theme in order to log in. Click on “Ordering” and then “Take Order Sales Order” to get started. You do not need to fill in the customer email field.
The Popcorn Kernel is required to electronically approve “Take Order” orders in the system. Do not attempt to order prizes until that step is complete.
Ordering Prizes
Prize ordering takes place in the popcorn system with the same username and password that you use for Take Order sales. Choose “Ordering”, then “Order Prizes.”
Prizes should not be ordered until after all your Take Order and Show & Deliver sales have been entered in the system. The system will tell you what it thinks your sales total is.
Prizes should be ordered by Sunday, November 15.

As always, you can contact the Popcorn Kernel (popcorn@fisherspack106.org) with any questions. This information will also be distributed via email.
