What's in girl scout cookies?

Seriously, I start a sleeve...I finish a sleeve of thin mints. Is there a support group for something like this?

I think the cookie sales are still in Jan/Feb. At least, my girls haven't started selling yet.

I would check the box to see if it says "Made in china" before I answered that question.

Girl scouts cookies are only made at 2 factories in the US. Our area sells cookies starting in Feb with delivery end of Feb, beginning of March. Because there are only 2 factories to keep up with the supply and demand, the US is broken down into areas. That's why some people have them now and others don't.

Jena is the girl scout Queen, usually selling about 300 boxes. I buy 30 for the house which doesn't last long when you have a 15 year old boy that will eat a whole box of Samoes for an afternoon snack!

Oh and ladies, if you're having a bad day, fluff a nutter between 2 thin mints is to die for

how much do GS cookies cost these days, I get some every year from customers that have kids that sell them. I haven't bought a box in a dozen or more years
I'm so old, I remember my sis selling them for .35 a box & i got mad because she wouldn't make 3 for a buck, I wanted the family discount

We're talking a 1000% increase in price since you last bought them - I think they're going for $3.50 a box in the NYC area.

Still worth it, tho!!!!
