If you love sweet treats — or anything fun, for that matter — then you probably know that it’s officially Girl Scout Cookie season. Maybe you’ve seen a few troops around your town or city. Or, perhaps friends and relatives of Girl Scouts have posted digital cookie links online. (There’s also the chance that your stomach just knows that it’s Girl Scout Cookie season, and hey, we don’t blame you). Despite these traditional methods of getting the word out, some budding female entrepreneurs have gotten super creative with their marketing tactics — and Cardi B is so here for it.
Kiki, a Girl Scout in California, has been especially imaginative. In late January, her mother Shania Accius shared a video of Kiki rapping to Cardi B’s “Money” as a way to advertise for her cookie sales. But instead of reciting the actual lyrics, Kiki rapped about Girl Scout Cookies and the entrepreneurial goals of her troop.
“Thin Mints are the best, Savannah Smiles delish, Do Si Does are bliss, Tagalongs devine, Toffee Tastic blows my mind,” rapped Kiki. “Hey that really rhymes.” Brilliant.
The official Girl Scout Twitter shared the clip and tagged Cardi B. Eventually, Cardi B saw the video and loved it so much that she retweeted it.
I want all the cookieshhh https://t.co/BDMwP8xiX2

Kiki’s mom, Shania, was just as stoked that Cardi B shared the video.
Thank you for the retweet! This is "Kiki P's" mom. Kiki is sleeping right now, but when she wakes up it will be like Christmas Day to hear that you responded! Please reach out to me if you truly want cookies... my troop would love the support.

It makes total sense, though. Who doesn’t love Girl Scout cookies?
The clip was enough to inspire Twitter users to find cookies of their own.
Now I need some GirlScout cookies....😂😂

But most importantly, Kiki’s video is the epitome of awesome.
… And adorable, obviously!
The official Girl Scout Twitter account also took the time recognize Kiki’s hard work.
She definitely nailed the marketing & promotions badge!

They were super proud of her marketing skills.

And according to her mom’s Instagram, Kiki has also been on the local news.
Seriously, how cool?
