I missed out on the girl scout cookies this year.:(

My boss brought in a form from his daughter on Monday and spread it around the office. I was excited, went home asked the wife what she wanted, etc etc.
He comes in this morning and says "Well I forgot that she had to have them in by Monday, Im sorry"

Sorry just doesnt cut it for us missing out on the cookies you asspony. What should I do? Firebomb him :D Firebomb his decked out Nissan? :D
Break into his house in a ffew weeks and still his cookies? :D


I guess I cant buy them online either. Toobad it seems like they would make a fortune selling on the internet.

Wait a couple weeks when the cookies come into the Girl Scout troops. They always get way more than needed, then set up a shop in front of Walmarts and grocery stores to sell the extras.

By the way, I bought about 6 boxes so far. :p

Those cookies are overpriced. I could get a lot more for less at the supermarket.

You could or you could support Girl Scouts and buy their cookies.
Its called contributing to a worthy cause and getting more than cookies in return.

Since you missed the girl scouts, just go to your local supermarket. The same cookies are there, just with different labels applied. Costs you half as much as well. (Then donate the money you saved to the girl scouts next year to avoid flames from people like AmericasTeam).

For example, the girl scout "Thin Mints" are called "Grasshoppers" in the cookie isle.

What are the Samoans called, what brand are they sold under, and which stores sell them? I know people who would kill for this information (including me)!

For your information they are not the same and it wasn't a flame.

You're an idiot <-------- Thats a flame.

I don't know where you got your info but here it tells a different story.

"Where Does My Cookie Money Go? "

Cost per package: $3.50

$1.96 - programs for girls, property and adult leadership
.84 - cost of cookies
.50 - troop funds for troop planned activities and programs
.20 - recognition items for girls

I just got my cookies today. Yummm, the new reduced fat Lemon Coolers are awesome. Of course, I ate almost the entire box.
