Ok, we've all had them. But do you just buy in bulk from some mother selling
them in the office, or do you actually get them from a girl scout?

The Girl Scouts usually set up a table in front of the local grocery store.
There is usually 5 or 6 of them hawking the cookies. I ask each one what is
their favorite cookie and end up buying that particular kind. (ya gotta keep
the mothers quiet-they'd sell you a tractor-trailer full). If I personally
don't like that kind, I bring it to the office-doesn't last very long.

I have four grocery stores in my immediate area. Sometimes I am really glad
that they only sell the cookies once per year-my freezer can't take anymore.

You?

Kswck,

At the house, the GS would come escorted by parents and solicit cookies and
it was an instant transaction.

I remember as a kid, Mom would, at our command, fill out a ticket with
checkmarks and handed it back and in two or so weeks they were delivered.

Nowadays, like you describe, they just set up shop in front of the
supermarket entryway.

My favorites were thin mints and do-si-dos!

I felt gyp'd that they weren't available year round.

Best,

Andy

I always buy three to five of each, Thin Mints and a Lemon sort. I
usually freeze two of each so as to not only have an immediate office
share with my Marines, but to also have some to bring in for them a
month later.
I would much rather buy from the always uniformed and sweet door-to-
door sales, but my home is rarely seen by any. I don't grocery shop
often enough to catch sales there from the actual girls, so for many
years now I have bought from fathers aboard the USMC base whom I know
well, and they are also the ones who bring their uniformed daughters
in for the actual deliveries and thank yous.

I've never bought any and never would because
I don't want to support a paramilitary organization
for girls or anybody else.

I try to find a child to buy from. Then I buy 33 boxes. These will
last me through the year, being especially go during the summer since
frozen caramel and chocolate peanut butter cookies are wonderful at
that season.

I usually only buy a handful of boxes which is why it amuses me when
they say the cookies freeze well. They don't last long at all in my
house. If I bought that many, I might have leftovers.

My daughter's troop sold them door-to-door, not at a store like some
do. It IS nicer that way, I think. Better learning experience for
them, too, IMHO.

But we live in a very pedestrian-friendy area, which I think helps.

The Thin Mints are the BEST!!

Kris, who's daughter sold 164 boxes this year!

The selling of girl scout cookies seems to be dominated by
over-eager mothers. Two mothers at work are both courting everyone
at work into buying cookies. You can even buy them on eBay.

While I don't think little girls should be going door to door, they
should be doing more than givin them all to mom.

When's the last time you saw a father pushing GS cookies? (OK, some
of you will undoubtedly say you have seen it, but most of us
haven't).

with tomatoes, mayo, and San Del Hot Pickled cherry peppers. With
mustard potato salad.

That's .634615385 boxes a week. I need at least .7/week. So I buy

Oh, you did it now, Mark! Let the cat out of the bag. Well, time for full
disclosure. Girl Scouts actually train with the U.S. Navy Seals and the
CIA. Currently, they have been successfully and covertly inserted into
Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan. These "sleeper cells" await orders from POTUS
and upon receiving said orders, will inundate the targeted countries with
Thin Mints, Samoas® and Do-Si-Dos®, thus causing total mayhem and collapsing
the countries political and military infrastructures. A "black ops"
program, in place since the Coolidge administration. Truth be told the GSA
specializes in nuclear and radiological warfare. Keep your Geiger counter
at the ready!

Actually, my husband helped my daughter sell them a lot more than I
did. Maybe we're the exception, though.

Where I work, three fathers bring in their daughters' cookie sheets.
I buy a few boxes from each, and some from my friends' kids.

They freeze well<g>

Some of them go quicker than a week. Others last longer. And some
weeks (like around Christmas) I bake so many darned cookies that the
ones in the freezer hold no allure for the family.

If you look closely, you'll see that the Sewing badge actually says
Spying. It's subtle, but if you pay attention, you'll see that those
activities are just not what they seem. It doesn't say Cooking, it
says Coup-ing. Like that.

Ah, another "insider". A nefarious bunch, those Girl Scouts are.

Sure. If you want partially hydrogenated palm kernel oil, be my
guest. The folks who run GSA should be shot. On quite a few of their
cookie's nutrition labels it says "palm and/or partially
hydrogenated..." which is an admission that non-hydrogenated palm oil
works fine, and could be used exclusively. Why don't they do it?
