THIN MINTS!!!!

katsarecool · 01-18-2011, 05:11 AM

Another Thin Mints kinda gal! I also sold GS cookies when they were .50 a box. I held the parents I babysat for randsom. "Don't buy my cookies and you no longer have a great inexpensive babysitter who does not eat everything in your refrigerator and washes dishes too!"

Are girl scout cookies a seasonal thing? Why do they sell them?

sylvie · 01-18-2011, 06:42 AM

sooo love thin mints as well...
they didnt sell thin mints when i was a girl guide selling cookies..
we just had the basic white or chocolate cookies back then..
but now they have all these delicious yums....
i was such a good girl guide, i sold many, many cookies! lol

< -- she who hunts for girl guide cookie sellers but can never find any.. (which may be a good thing)

Seriously. They are like Special Forces, Cookie Agents.

Now that I think about it...they are more like cops.

When I want or need one, I can't find one. But when I'm trying my best to avoid them, they are EVERYWHERE.

Buggers.

yes they are seasonal...... they are sold to raise money for the Girl Scouts, and the girls that are in them.... The girls can raise money for going to camp and other things.....

No girl scouts come around here in these parts of NJ I wonder why because I love me some thin mints and the peanut butter ones with the chocolate um now I am hungry for them..

What name did they change Samoas to?

c

They didn't change the name of Samoas, per se. There are two factories that manufacture that particular cookie. One of the factories still calls and markets them as Samoas and the other thinks that Caramel Delights sounds better, so they call and market them as such.

It's the same damn cookie and I *love* them so!

I even like the Samoa knockoffs by Keebler HERE.

Would it be wrong of me to brag that I have Samoa ice cream in my freezer RIGHT NOW?

You could move to TX.

Just sayin'.

wolfbittenpoet · 04-02-2011, 04:11 PM

I like thin mints. Definitely my fave.

I was a cookie crack dealer. I made huge amounts of sales for years. I held the record until last year in my council district. Door to door with my red wagon and the teddy bear holding a cookie box.

HighMainFemme · 01-18-2011, 08:46 PM

Thin mints are my favorites, just bought 4 boxes!
Samoas! yummy, love that coconut, 2 boxes!
And the new flavor, white chocolate fudge with cranberries, 2 boxes!

umm... no, they aren't for me.... they are for my kids.
sigh....
darn it, back to the confession thread....

prettylilgrrl · 04-02-2011, 10:39 AM

I love these after having them in the freezer for awhile. They seem to taste better every year though. I think it's because I miss them when they are gone lol.

Bootboi · 04-02-2011, 10:44 AM

We call the guy who sells his daughters girl scout cookies at work...The "Cookie Crack Dealer"

His cube is like a drive through window for cookies. I have my freezer stocked with 3 boxes of thin mints. French Vanilla ice cream to cut the sweetness! Hahhahaha

Gemme · 04-02-2011, 10:47 AM

I have Samoa ice cream.

They are seasonal, as to the why, it is fundraising so the girls can go to camp, etc.
