I hate GS cookies. Over priced little bitty boxes.

"My local liquor store is selling Girl Scout cookies, and last week I chose Thin Mints over gin..."


Next time buy the gin.

But now Roth has done it for real—and with little discernable humor. "I’ve always cringed at young females identifying themselves with baked goods," she says. "And I’m not convinced more cookies makes the world a better place."

That's because you're a waste of God's good oxygen, MeMe. Please go away and stay there.

Pride cometh before the fall, Ms. Roth.

What a boatload of crap.

If people dont want the cookies they dont have to buy them.

Personally I like the Mint ones.

Stay out of my eating habits you dorks. I buy what I want and eat what I want and anybody that doesnt like it can kiss my grits.

oh man! our dog is the cookie monster here. she's sniffed
out just about every box our poor kids have bought and
scarfed them down. the kids keep buying replacement boxes
and finding new hiding spots, but the darned dog is just
too smart.

I have trouble believing that the liquor store is selling Girl Scout cookies. The GSUSA authorities would never allow a booth sale to be held at a liquor store, even if the local statutes allowed minors to be in the area.

However, it's possible that the owner of the store is a GS parent with a garage full of cookies ...

I cannot believe those cute little girls are cold blooded killers.

Maybe they could sell 'carbon offsets' and the Left will be happy.

That was my plan -- but the Thin Mints I bought yesterday at 10:30 a.m. were gone by 2:00 this morning.

Yeah. The concept of Girl Scout Granola Bars or Girl Scout Rice cakes just doesn't have any real appeal to me.

I'll suffer the health consequences for the cookies. After all, I have another year to address the health risks before temptation comes around again.

The very reason you and I were given the ability to make a choice. If you are too dumb to not eat a few and eat many then it is you fault not the Girl Scouts or anyone else.

If you were in a liquor store I assume that you drink. That is also your choice as your liver goes to blank. So enjoy.

"Over priced..."

Not only are they exorbitantly priced, the numbers don't add up. The Girls Scouts can not be making $700 million a year on those sales. The shame of this scam is that a mega-bakery is scamming Girl Scouts into selling that stuff for pennies on the dollar.

Forget the obesity angle and look at the balance sheet of the producer of those cookies.

I'm sure the Girl Scouts would make a lot of money selling organic rice cakes, tofu cookies and macrobiotic wheat crackers.

"...make more money..."

I give the local troop the amount of the cookies and decline to order. That way ALL the money goes to the GSA.
