millertime24 8 #1 March 12, 2011 I gotta give it to em'. They really know how to hit a target audience. I was walking into the Class 6 to pick up a case of beer and wouldn't you know it, there was the base Girl Scout troop selling cookies right outside. Here's why they are genius in selling their cookies this way. It's Friday... at 1700... in front of the base liquor store... see where I'm going here. Anywho, I couldn't say no and I figured I would want something to munch on while I was drinking my beer so I got a couple boxes. I really love these cookies, and since it's for a cause I believe in, it's a win-win.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muff528 3 #2 March 12, 2011 I always ask the girls if they have "the good kind" and, without fail, they hand me the Thin Mints. MMMMM! I always stock up my freezer with them during cookie season. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was telling them how well prepared I was due to the large amount of firepower I have, and they said the same thing...

AggieDave 6 #9 March 12, 2011 Oh, you'd eat all right, but it would go "gghhhhmmmmmggghhh...brrraaaaaaaaiiiinnnsssss..." since you would have gotten weak and been bitten. Don't worry, I'll save you from such a horrible fate. That's what friends are for.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

They are delicious! And when I'm swarmed by 3 little kids asking me to buy some cookies so they can fund their activities to make them better people, I'm not going to say no.

AggieDave 6 #13 March 12, 2011 So are Girl Scouts beheading the monkeys for a merit badge or is it just a troop activity? I got jipped, I guess they have much better field trips since they're not selling popcorn.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

muff528 3 #16 March 12, 2011 +1 No way I'm gonna support palm-oil-free GS cookies. They should leave the saturated fat in them ....where it belongs! DON'T !% WITH THE COOKIES!! Give the orangutans the freedom to adapt and evolve into a more robust species. Free them from the bondage of their limited and isolated environment and from their absolute dependence upon it. What happens to them if Toba blows again and they can't adapt? What about future species which will evolve and adapt to the new environment created by the production of Thin Mints? New, unimaginable species that will never exist unless given their own special niche to fill. Don't they also have a right to their place in the world of the future?

(Although, I might buy the Walmart brand if there weren't any Girl Scouts around. Thanks for the tip! Uh, they are filled with orangutan-killing palm oil, aren't they?)

skymama 37 #23 March 12, 2011 If anyone can get their hands on some more Thin Mints and bring them to Fitzgerald for me, I'll love them forever! The cookie sales are over in my area and my rotten kids ate most of my stash, even though I bought them their own boxes. They are really, really rotten kids to do that to an old woman (that's what I tell them, but they say my guilt trips don't work anymore ). She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
