/r/RandomActsOfCookies
This is inspired by an idea seen in another subreddit and is following the same model as /r/Random_Acts_Of_Pizza. That being said, the rules will be similar to that subreddit.
Be kind. Send cookies. Everybody loves cookies.
READ THE SIDEBAR BEFORE POSTING
Please note: Although this subreddit is called RandomActsOfCookies, we are not limited to just sending cookies here. Many people have sent brownies, or cupcakes, or other baked goods and that is perfectly fine. If you would like to request a different baked good than cookies please feel free to post here for that as well. Just don't forget your [REQUEST] tag. : )
Flair Key:
Cookie Star = Giver
Cookie Monster = Repeat Giver
To help make sure everyone gets their appropriate flair please post [Received] or [Thanks] posts so I know you got cookies and from who.
If you've given cookies and I've missed you please send the mods a message and we will add your flair. If you can provide a link to the [Thanks] post or some other proof that the cookies were received that would help us out quite a bit.
Possible places to order cookies:
** New: Evil Foods **
Midnight Munchies! - PM u/Midnight_Munchies for a special Reddit discount!
NOTE: Given that the nature of cookies is different than that of pizza in that cookies can be homemade or store bought (not that pizza can't be homemade, just that it's less common) there are some things to consider. If you do not wish to receive homemade cookies please make that explicitly clear in your post.
Likewise, if you do not want store bought cookies sent to you because you are worried about the possibility that they may be tampered with you may request a gift card or coupon for cookies from a bakery or grocery store near you. Or check out one of the places above where you can order cookies from.
I would hope that, given the nature of giving present in this subreddit, no one here would have any malicious intent when sending cookies. I can, however sympathize with people's concerns on such matters.
Process:
STEP 1: Be sure to check the new tab for new requests or offers before you submit your own.
STEP 2: Be very mindful of the fact that there may be people out there trying to scam you. If you have any questions regarding the legitimacy of a post please send the mods a message and we will do our best to address said issues.
STEP 3: Click here or click the "Submit a Link" button below and post your request or offer for cookies. Please include [REQUEST] or [OFFER] in your post and include your general location. DO NOT POST YOUR FULL ADDRESS OR CONTACT INFORMATION IN A PUBLIC POST.
Once again, DO NOT post personal information in your post. All other communication should be done in your thread.
Requestors, please be COMPLETELY HONEST about your circumstances. We don’t mind multiple requestors or asking for cookies just for fun or asking for any reason. This is the RANDOM part of Random Acts of Cookies. However, we DO want you to be upfront about your circumstances. Being less than upfront is a bannable offense as is deleting prior requests, posting under multiple accounts, or other such actions.
Please DO NOT include any NSFW material in any of your posts. Doing so will result in post deletion and a possible ban.

Soon on December is my birthday. Hope to take some cookies.
[Request]
Hey guys my birthday is coming up on the 19th and I was wondering if we could have some cookies, me and my two kids 5year m 11mth female are I'm a rough situation and I just wanted to put a smile on their faces even if it's just cookies
They also sent me some Golden but we ate those really fast and it was like last week. Amazon delivery times amiright
I love chocolate chip, Oreo, any kind of cookies. 🍪 First time on this subreddit. This is awesome.
Hey y'all, first time on this sub. Great idea! Cookies are amazing
I've been super bummed lately. Quarantine isn't helping obviously, but in the span of the past month
My wifi has broken, being out for nearly 3 weeks and now it's half as fast as it used to be
I'm pretty much single again, which is fan-feckin-tastic. Never been so alone since I found out I was poly lmao
Lost pretty much all motivation for projects. Was doing some voice work, I hate my voice, doing painting, was a pain and made a huge mess, now I'm trying to get back into digital art
We had to give my last bed to my grandma after a surgery, and I got her inflatable bed. Well, it just broke so now I'm sleeping on a foam pad on the floor until we can afford a bed
and last but not least, I'm just super duper duper poor! Living on Foodstamps and stuff
So yea, all that has kinda made me not wanna do much but lay around and play Minecraft all day. What would really help me feel better is a pack or two of Oreos? They're my favourite cookie on the planet and the last pack I bought went into a care package for my girlfriend...who broke up with me a month later. Haha.
My favourite is Birthday Cake, and if you feel generous enough to add a second pack then whatever you like would be nice. Except if it's like, lemon. Lemon flavours are gross.
Hey! I am always making too many cookies and desserts since I'm recording a baking YouTube channel.
With always having a surplus, I was excited to find this sub. Comment with your favorite shelf stable dessert. If and when I make your dessert I'll message you for further details. I'll aim to send one pack out a week.
Unfortunately I can only ship to the USA. Happy days!
Hi there everyone! I’m currently quarantined, have been for months and I’m going a little crazy. Anyone else feel like they can’t get out of bed most days? Ive really been trying but some days I feel no motivation. I would love some cookies to cheer me up :)
After a hellish week and worry, I'd love to receive cookies (or any other baked goods!) from someone! Things have been a little rough here but I try my best to support others even though theres all these riots and people getting hurt.
After finding out how this Reddit works, I spent pretty much all day searching for some well-priced good cookies. After failing at that, I decided just to come on here and ask. So, can someone please send me some cookies? Just let me know if you want to. It would much appreciated. I haven't had a cookie in a while so I'm hoping someone will see this.
So like pretty much everyone on earth right now. im stuck in my house about to start my womanhood (if you know what I mean) in pain and am craving cookie. If anyone would be kind I appreciate it and good luck to everyone! ❤️
This user shared a little bit with me about their own father and why they decided to send our family cookies today. My dad is smiling for the first time in a number of days. He looks so happy and the packaging is so pretty that we almost do not want to eat it.
The company listed "Be Well + Stay Safe" on the outside packaging, and each cookie conforms to sanitary guidelines with the individual wrapping. We're all so happy about this, because I was able to keep it a secret and surprise them.
My dad gets to have as many as he wants, and everyone else in the house has enough to have one, too.
I am attaching a photo of the cookies!
Thank you so much, u/the_red_beast for brightening my father's week.
Feeling a bit lonely, all my roommates and friends flee the area and college as soon as they canceled classes, but I end up staying here, and I most likely stay here until the fall, this is in painful but cookies always make me happy :-)
I understand that a lot of people are strapped right now because of current events. He was just told to apply for unemployment and he's old enough that I have been trying to keep him from going outside.
Sweet Cravings Cookie Company is a small operation downtown that has switched to no contact deliveries to try and keep people healthy and also keep their doors open.
Their cookies always look so nice and right now they're doing free delivery. He supports our family of 6 (multigenerational including my grandparents and little cousin out of school) and feels like he's let us down.
But he didn't let us down. We're proud of him and I want to show it. He was laid off because he's in food service and I would buy them myself if all of my exhibitions hadn't been cancelled. My next event isn't until July, otherwise I would send them business myself.
They let you pay online and right now shipping is free. I don't want to see any other small places have to shut down for good so even if you see them and decide to order for yourself instead, then this request was worth it.
I think that the only specific thing is that his teeth aren't the best so if the options without nuts could be ordered (like the brown butter chocolate chunk, sprinkle and/or snickerdoodle), I know he would be able to enjoy them.
Thank you for reading.
Been on a keto diet for a couple of months. I am just dying for something gooey and delicious. Free baked goods don't have calories right?
Thank you so much it really made my day
Hey! If someone could send me some cookie or brownies or whatever sweets you can think of would be much appreciated. I been down on my luck and am out of money due to bills so cookies would differently cheer me up. My local cookie shops are in Boone nc and are insomnia cookies and Appalachia Cookie Company I appreciate any cookie help ❤️❤️
I'm in Britain and right now I don't have a job or any money at all and was hoping some amazing person out there would be willing to send me some chips ahoy cookies if they wanted to, you don't have to at all if you don't want
I'm not sure what else to out in this request but if someone wants to that would be amazing and would make my day since I've always wanted to try chips ahoy but never had the chance to
My son loves the cookie cakes from Kroger and Walmart. His bday is coming up and I was wanting to get him one but I'm broke. If anyone can help we'd be super grateful ^_^
My lil brother just got into a car accident, it’s tough seeing him like this fr fr but he’s favorite thing in the world is cookies so maybe one of y’all can look out
My Birthday is November 9th, and to be honest it is looking kind of sucky. This is my first birthday here in a new state... Not only do I not really have friends here but my family isnt here either. I guess I have a sweet tooth and just hope for it to make my upcoming aging up ceremony a little better.😊
These cookies are better than I expected, they are so soft and I doubt there's anything like them in a store. Thank you sooooooo much for baking cookies and sending them to me. I can't wait until I have the means to pay this forward, watch your inbox everyone, there might be cookies in your future.
I am really hungry because my sister doesn't have a lot of food in her house. I don't have enough karma for random acts of pizza, so maybe I can get some cookies instead. I would really appreciate it. I can't wait until I'm in a good enough place financially to gift other people cookies or pizza.
It is a big brownie and I have only carved my way into a third of it... https://imgur.com/a/YuMJIRo?s=sms
Okay so here's the situation. I have regular food to eat. However, in preparation of myself planning on giving up soda, coffee, tea, etc (I put so much sugar and stuff in my coffee and tea, I have to give them up to give up soda), I made some errors by actually getting too much healthy snacks that don't trigger the pleasure centers of my brain like a good dose of cookie goodness does. My remaining funds are for things like transportation to work and buying household supplies. I really can't splurge on anything even like a candy bar on a regular basis to calm that soda craving.
Now I know I can cut soda in the long term, I've done it before (and foolishly thought I could bring coffee back after a promotion). I do need some type of sugary supplement for the hit of sugar cravings but I don't get paid until next Friday and it's gonna be a long weekend/week.
So...cookies? Honestly, as long as they don't smell like anise or something like that, and are on the sweet side anything will do store-bought or otherwise...I also won't say no to any other type of dessert like treat per the sidebar...I have milk because I like milk. :)
Title explains it all really. I woke up this morning to find out that my uncle was killed in a car crash. Most of my family sucks but he was one of the only people who understood me. I just want something sweet to help me feel a little less crappy...
I have never done this before but thisIs a really cool idea. I have been so depressed and sad lately over my mommas death and leaving my abusive husband. My two girls and I would love some cookies. Thanks
