Love them but never buy them anymore. I cannot tell you how many boxes I bought over the years and devoured myself. They used to carry shortbread cookies covered in chocolate, those were my favorites.
Honestly, I can't think of any GS cookie I dislike. Kinda glad they're so expensive and I don't know anyone who sells them anymore.

Here, they have the girls set up booths at different locations (retailers like grocery stores) and they sell them throughout the cookie selling season. It’s a good cause, so I usually buy some.
I love the lemon, thin mints, and tag along. I always buy a bunch, but I usually don’t get to eat nearly as many as I want/plan to. My family are like locusts. I’ve started hoarding snacks in my desk at work in order to get anything lol.

I laughed far too hard at this extremely relatable statement! :laugh:
And you just reminded me that I have been meaning to get some cash to keep at home for fundraisers like this. Every year, these poor girls on my street come to my house for fundraisers and I never have cash.
Anyway - I will buy 2 boxes of thin mints and 2 boxes of samoas.

Those girls around here are fancy! I passed one of those tables they set up and realized I didn't have cash on me, and the little Daisy scout said "oh we take credit cards"... I couldn't say no after that :laugh:

I don't know anyone who sells them either anymore. My favorites were the Savanaha's (I don't think they are called that anymore). I loved the crunchy cookie.
If it helps sway your decision at all, they may be the most delicious things on the planet, but that industry is one of the single most consumers of palm oil in the world. Clearcutting rainforests for palm plantations. I try to tell my self that for every box I don't buy I'm saving an orangutan. Sometimes it helps...

Already rethinking the Samoas. Maybe one box.
I should say that it's unlikely a Girl Scout WILL ring my doorbell. Previous years I've bought from a co-worker, but that is no longer applicable.

You can buy a box and have it shipped to soldiers overseas. I find that's a great option sometimes.
That's fancy and cunning!
I generally do this when anyone is selling something as a fundraiser.
I already ordered some Thin Mints, Tagalongs, and Trefoils. I don't like coconut, so Samoas have always been a hard no for me.
Pro Tip: Freeze the thin mints, then chop them up and mix in with vanilla ice cream.
I guess I could replace the cookies inside with something edible too.
