Years ago, a guy at my office had a picture of Inigo Montoya outside his cubicle, and the caption said "My name is Scott _____, my daughters sell Girl Scout cookies.  Prepare to buy."

So I bought a few boxes and told him that his slick marketing worked.

Already bought my annual case of Thin Mints from my local dealer.

While I really want her to meet her goals, I don't want to see it at the expense of local troops.  Some of them rely on sales to keep running through the year.

My solution is, if you have a local GS troop, get your cookie fix from them first. And if you have an extra few bucks, then help out online.

Sounds like they should send the kid to math class instead of, or at least in addition to, scouts.

My solution: bake my own damn cookies.  I love samoas, but I refuse to pay $5 for only 15 in the damn box.

some kids in uniforms delivering alcohol door to door with like a wagon full of liquor bottles would make a great Norman Rockwell image, and but there too many laws again' it to make it reality

Maybe my wife will miss the sales window.  Last year, we spent way too much time trying to find some.

Show me your Girl Scout Vest with your "killed a man in Reno, just to watch him die" badge, and I'll buy your cookies.*

/*I won't buy your cookies

She knows that it's a lot

No, she doesn't. She has no idea how much that really is.  Don't pretend your daughter actually understands that.

If she sells 40 million boxes she'll have twice Jeff's net worth
