My 7 year old is a girl scout and an optimistic one at that. She set her cookie sales goal at 500 boxes. Our road has like 6 houses on it, so that was a wash. Everyday after work and every Saturday and Sunday we went door to door everywhere within driving distance. Today we finished up with 439 boxes sold. She was happy with it but super bummed about not hitting her goal, so I went ahead and bailed her out. 61 boxes or $244.00 in thin mints are now mine.

I wonder if there is help for folks like us?

A Thin Mint re-hab maybe?

I CAN`T stop at 3, 4, 8, 15...............You get the idea. Once the box is opened.................................

Oh, those Thin Mints are better when they have been put in the fridge for a bit!

You guys do know that you can buy them all year round at Dollar General.  Packaged differently, but the same manufacturer.

Not likely, I give 61 boxes about a week. I have a lot of self control, but not when thin mints come into play.

I cant remember the last time an actual girl scout was the person who tried to sell me girl scout cookies.
Its usually their parents or parents friends.

Doesn't GD hate Girl Scouts for some reason?  



My kid's in Girl Scouts and I remember a thread a while ago about not buying GS cookies for some reason or another.

You shouldn`t of gone there. No. You should have never posted that pic`.

Preparing all armchair warrior troops as we speak for a clandestine raid.

I am sure that we will be caught but it won`t be at that facility.

The po-po will have a nice trail of empty boxes and wrappers, to find out where we went.

GD needs to come up with a clever way for the OP to use one of the boxes in an epic YouTube video and make it go viral so the OP can recover his money for the rest of the boxes.

They usually post up in front of the grocery store by me. I always walk by fast so that I don't buy their stock out like OP did .

Interesting. I will have to research your claim and go into full science mode here. Its for the children.

OP, Nestle makes a thin mints chocolate milk. I bought the store out of it more than once of it.

When my son was in Scouts, I bought cases of microwave popcorn.  I would then put them in my customers' break rooms with my card attached.  He got the sales and I wrote them off as a biz expense.

Doesn't your troop do any cookie booths at local places?

That was alway an easy way for Thing1 to pick up an extra 100 or so box sales.
