Many years ago, my son was a submariner out at sea with his 21st birthday coming up. At the same time, my daughter was selling Girl Scout cookies. We decided to buy 70 boxes of cookies and send them to him on the sub. He will tell you to this day that was his favorite present ever. They had been out at sea for more than 6 months and getting those cookies was like a taste of home. It made an entire crew of sailors happy. It wasn't too long after that that the Girl Scouts took donations for cookies to be sent overseas every year.

With the money we earned, we were able to take every girl on a camping trip and they didn't have to pay a thing! It's a great way to get girls involved in their community and we teach our Brownies about STEM subjects like math, engineering, robotics, coding, and cybersecurity. They also learn about life skills like art, money management, outdoor safety, and self-care.

I’m in high school now, and I’ve been doing Girl Scouts since I was around 6-7. We currently sell the boxes for $6 a box. We only make $1.05 from each box we sell. That extra five cents is from us opting out of prizes. My troop has 6 girls and we sell 8,000 boxes as a troop each season. We get to go to Dodger games, water parks and theme park because of the cookies we sell as a troop. We are actually planning a trip to Iceland with our money. But it’s taken us 5 years, and doing fundraisers, and negotiating and fighting with Girl Scouts. What we as troops do for them is a lot of work, for very little gain.

Girl Guide (Canadian name) Leader here - To keep the jokiing straight (We get a lot of it😅) FYI: The girls are getting a percentage of the sales, just not in the way one thinks off the bat. The cookie sales go towards materials (crafts, badges, etc) and discounts on tickets for each troupe that sells, making it easier to do many more things during the year that they otherwise might not do. IE: If a Ticket per girl for a location - lets say a Zoo trip - costs $50 per girl, after cookies the same experiance could drop to $10 per girl and sometime gets to $0 depending on the ticket Not to mention the fact that selling cookies itself is a badge earning excersize, teaching girls to be money wise and responsible - also including prizes for the best cookie seller every year! This isn't just some box on a shelf - these simple cookies support awesome girls doing cool things!

The entire US uses mint toothpaste and thin mints are still by far the most popular cookie. They didn't want to like the cookie and that's why they didn't like it.

When I was a Girl Scout (many, many years ago), I lived near a large VA Hospital. We would set up in the lobby and at least half the people coming through the door would buy a box of cookies as a gift for whoever they were visiting. We did a very good business! Joke was, we couldn’t afford to buy the cookies ourselves.

It’s important to know that there are two bakeries that make Girl Scout cookies: Little Brownie Bakers (the original baking company) and ABC Bakery. They supply different regions of the US, and you can tell which is which based on the names they call the cookies. The original cookie names (Tagalong, Samoas, Dosidos) hail from Little Brownie Bakers. After living in regions that had both, I can say that cookies come from Little Brownie Bakers are superior - the taste is just way better overall, but then again they are the original bakery!

I still have my vest and all the badges I earned (none for selling cookies). I still love supporting the Girl Scouts buying cookies and donating several boxes to the troops.

Oh my god those girls made bag, yall probably bought 2-3 of everything! As a former girl scout myself, cookie selling was always my favorite part. When I was a kid in the 90s, we earned points based on how many cookies we sold, individually and as a troop, and there were benchmarks for rewards as a troop (for instance if we sell 3000 boxes the entire troop gets to go to the girl scout summer camp) and as an individual (one year I traded in my points for a doorbell and an inflatable chair lol). We HUSTLED. It was always a lot of fun and it got me socializing with and talking to people as a young autistic child in a way that was really valuable for my long term ability to mask and operate in society.

That’s what I thought because I was a Brownie & a Girl Scout and remembered green uniforms for GS.

Dying over the mental image of a bunch of elementary school Girl Scouts going to the Maldives every year 😂 The troop receives less than a dollar a box that’s be quite the undertaking.

Them immediately downing my favorite GS cookie (and as a former Scout) has me in tears 😂 Also, the money raised from our cookie sales - as well as the fall catelogue, which is a lot of seasonal/holiday treats, gifts, and such - goes towards the troops uniforms, trips, camps, events, and occasionally to rent their meeting spaces. Our troop did at least one horse camp every summer! And it's basically all school age kids, roughly ages 5-18 in about six different levels by age. Each level has a name (the youngest are called daisies) and certain patches to be earned to "graduate" to the next level. The patches are earned after completing certain events/objectives including nature camps, cultural events, community service, and taking on leadership roles. Its incredibly motivating and fulfilling for young girls to be able to find their passions and their confidence to take on things in the future with such a supportive foundation. 💜
