    I know what you mean - it seems every other person in my office is selling them for their kids. Big flashing lights above them (or so it seems) ... I have to walk around with blinders on!!

    I ordered my favorites on a whim and I will probably let my kids and hubby eat them up!

    I didn't order any this year. I even denied my niece who's a GirlScout! Am I a bad aunt or what???

    Oh man, I did not order any this year. I almost did. I thought I could throw them in the freezer and just eat one at a time once in awhile...but then I decided no way. I'd eat the whole box just like I always do. So I did not buy any.

    OMG - I just started this diet and I completely forgot that I ordered cookies weeks ago. :noway: I guess I will have to lock the thin mints in the deep freeze out in the barn. Maybe I'll be able to just forget that they are there(you know out of sight, out of mind)!

    And everyone knows that the serving size is a full sleeve.

    Last year they had a program where you could buy a box to be sent to the troops. That way you could still support the Girl Scouts without the temptation of the evil discs.

    Don't Buy them! When those little girls come to the door, just give them a donation. It's healthier for you and their troop individual earns more money. Double win.
