How's seven? Four Tagalongs, two Samoa & one Thin Mint.
(And the highest sales I had was 870 boxes, sixth grade-- high in council, thank you very much!)

Sorry, Amanda. I'm holding out strong this year. We've pitched all the junk food in our house, and there will be NO Girl Scout cookies purchased. [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img] My hips are thanking me already, though. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Eat a few for me, though, willya? I lurve Caramel Delights. [img]redface.gif[/img]

Excuses, excuses!! Just freeze them, kitschywoman!

(Hope you have strong teeth, though!)

The AG force made me lose 27 pounds for AG $$, so now I can eat goodies again, in moderation.

I don't know any local girl scouts right now, either, but I'll be watching for them in front of local stores.
I like those chocolate things with caramel and coconut--are those the samoas? I used to get other kinds too, for variety, but then everyone always wished I'd gotten more samoas instead! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Cute photo!! No one buys cookies from me anymore because I'm too 'old'. They buy from all the little girls. It can be quite disheartening [img]frown.gif[/img]

I haven't seen any tables set up outside wal mart or the grocery store yet, but I will get some thin mints when I do! [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">No way. [img]eek.gif[/img] My teeth can't take that type of abuse. I'll lose my crown (again).

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Those are the Caramel Delights I was talking about. The cookie names vary depending on the bakery that produces them. We use ABC/Interbake in my area. They're known as Samoas in areas that use Little Brownie Bakers.

Yes, I know waaaay too much about Girl Scout cookies. [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

I love your reminder!
We're up to about 6 boxes right now. With 2 girls selling, I know that we have many more to buy! In our house dieting always starts AFTER GS cookie season.

I've got three boxes on pre-order that I should receive soon. I'm sure we'll end up buying a few when we see girls selling them in front of the stores too! - Meg B.

We ordered ours! I'm not sure which ones, because my daughter did the ordering. I'm sure, though, that at least one box was thin mints. [img]wink.gif[/img] I'll make sure that she saves a half-dozen cookies or so for me to eat on Valentine's Day, which is my next designated "free" day (I'm allowing myself one day a month in which to eat whatever I want - the rest of the time, I'm doing really good at eating healthy and sensibly).
