I'm in Canada and it's become hilarious because it used to be all the girl scouts set up in front of grocery stores but ever since pot became legal you can almost always find them near the dispensaries. They know their market. Our Girls Scouts only sell a box that is 1/2 chocolate cream and 1/2 vanilla cream. They also have built in loyalty because every adult female that spent years selling the cookies feels obligated to buy them when they grew up.
I recently learned that in England, lemonade is fizzy. In the US, our lemonade is made with still water.
So the Sprite Lemonade is more accurate for the UK?
When I started out in Girl Scouts many years ago, I remember each box costing $1.50. Now they are really pricey, a bit over $5, for certain amount of cookies. I tell people that if they really want the cookies, but don't like the price, just give a donation to the troops and buy the cookies in the store. The same exact cookies, from the same company, sells them in some stores for a bit over $2. Of couse you can only find the thin mint, the Carmel and the peanut butter patty.
I justify the increased cost with fewer cookies as a donation for Girl Scouts--LOL
Thin Mints and Samoas/caramel deLites are best after being in the freezer overnight. Also: those are the only ones I personally enjoy in ice cream and as ice cream flavors.
Thin mint a so good from the freezer.
They are not supposed to be hard. Jolly must have had them for a while.
My daughter sells these annually for her troop. A huge portion goes directly back to the troop for activities throughout the year. She has done so many things, from ballet, to camping and canoeing, animal rescue at Sea World, First Aid and CPR, etc. They get to try things and see what they like. They got a cookie reward also and will be doing a few trips as a thank you from the troop leader in September when the new year starts.
When I co-led my daughter's Brownie troop, they got about 25 cents per box from a $3.50 box. The rest goes to the National American GS.
The samosas and short bread cookies are the best. I know a few girls got smart and set up shop near a pot store and sold a lot more cookies.
I wonder how MANY times Kabir has to be told that Scones are NOT Biscuits before it sticks 🤔
He might not even read comments.
I absolutely love those cookies. I'll buy at least 6 boxes. And freeze them if I have to.
WHEN GIRL SCOUT COOKIE SALE IS GOING ON...THEY ARE OUTSIDE WALMART AND MANY STORES AND EVENTS. YOU CAN ONLY BUY THEM FROM THE ORGANIZATION, NEVER OVER THE COUNTER. MY HUSBAND WOULD BUY 10 - 15 BOXES AT A TIME!!! WHO CAN SAY NO TO A SWEET LITTLE GIRL IN HER SWEET UNIFORM SELLING COOKIE FOR HER TROOP? NOT ME!!! IT'S A GREAT ORGANIZATION, IT TEACHES GIRLS SO MUCH. THEY HAVE BADGES THEY EARN FOR COOKING, SEWING, CAMPING, ETC.
It has been years since my last girl scout cookie.. i loved thin mints (cold) and samoas/ caramel delight. There are some i haven't heard of..
The Thin Mints are better if you refridgerate them that way you get that cold & refreshing feel of the mint.
Yes the original name of the carmel cookie was Somoans don't ask me how they settled on that name but they were my second favorites after the Thin Mints. My mother would have to double or triple the amount of boxes of these two so she could have her stash and is kids could have our own.
Yeah, they are on the expensive side, but they are supporting a good cause.
And the peanut butter cookie was my third fave. Kabir, trust me an ice cold glass of milk with any of the first three cookies is a chef's kiss spot on incredible! Now, thats not to say they wouldn't go well with a cup of tea, but the milk would go infinitely better.
The peanut butter sandwich cookies are sort of dry.
The lemon ones were great last time I had them.
Keebler makes their cookies too
We have girl guide ( our version of Girl Scouts ) cookies in Canada. In the spring they sell a box of chocolate and vanilla cookies and in the fall they have a chocolate mint cookie. They are delish!
As a school teacher, every girl in my class asks me to buy a box. It’s expensive.
Girl scout cookies are the best cookies!! Though im not a mint fan either. But the peanut butter / caramel cookies YES!!
In England the Girl Scouts are called Girl Guides…I used to buy cases (12 boxes per case) to last all year…used to put them in my husband’s lunch for about 12 years
My troop used our money to make sure that all girls had uniforms regardless if their parents could afford it, we went on camping trips, learned to sew and the rest was for our general fund for troops (gas money for the leader, snacks, etc). I always buy at least 2 boxes of each
The Caramel deletes are amazing!!! I don't like coconut but that cookie is amazing. Can't wait till girl scout season!
They don't do door to door anymore, they set up at brick and motar stores, or events. When I buy the cookies, my one only favorite is the Trefoils, or short bread cookie.
My fav is the Tagalongs. Also, other companies make the same cookies so you can get them year round. Tastes the same.
We used to sell door to door during the Super Bowl or printout order forms and leave them in company lunchrooms.😅
peanut butter patties are my new favorites 🙌
When I was a child and a Boy Scout we were sent out to sell popcorn and Christmas cards in the winter time. Oh my neighbors bought some of this garbage. I look back and I think we were exploited. Some entity also had us selling flower and vegetable seeds to my neighbors. It may had been my high school
Thin Mints, both of he peanut butter cookies, and the lemon ones are my favorites. Then again, I love anything with peanut butter and anything lemon-flavored or with lemon in it, lol.
People here have mentioned freezing the Thin Mints. I never knew that was a thing. Sounds good though. I may have to try that next time.
When I was in Girl Scouts, I had people who lived out in the country buy 20-30 boxes at a time. The money we made would go toward a 1 week summer camp. There were a few we could choose from. There was a campground specifically for Girl Scouts in my area that the summer camps took place at.
I was a Girl Scout in the late 80s/early 90s. Back then they were like $2.50 a box and I’d sell them door to door by myself. Nowadays there will be a group of girls with an adult at a booth in front of other establishments. My favorites are thin mints (frozen of course) and Samoas. I rarely buy them because I can down a whole box in one sitting, and they’re kind of pricey.
The Girl Scout hall is at the end of my block. The first week of sales I probably have a dozen little knocks on the door. I finally started putting an empty box in the window by the door with a little sign, letting the kids know that I already had cookies ( a lot of cookies). It's hard to turn them away.
You can purchase cookies and have them sent directly to deployed troops,they take care of the shipping and the soldiers get a special treat from home.❤🇺🇸
Hi Kabir, Thin Mints are great! But really, all of the cookies are way above average. Their flavors are understated, so the Thin Mints aren't super minty, and the cinnamon cookies aren't over powered by the cinnamon. I also don't like milk to drink, but it's good for dipping the cookies in. If you're lactose intolerant, there is something called Bean-O you can eat that helps a lot.
That 200 million boxes means that almost two thirds of the population could have a box!
Have a good one, Kabir!
You have your 18 year old sister dress in your 12 years old Girl Scout outfit and send her to sell cookies at the Navy Base! That’s how to break records!
There was a Girl Scout a few years ago, her and the leader, set up shop a few feet from a pot shop. She sold a lot of boxes in one day.
Just fyi, going door to door for any kind of sales isn't really a thing anymore. Over time and especially after covid, its kind of been phased out. At least where I live.
The school they go to for these reactions is The Fulham Boys School in Fulham London. I think one or both of the Jolly guys went there.
I always wondered where they found this school and were able to do theae.
Actually, they did not school there. Mr. Smith and Josh and Ollie go way back to their early college days together. He has jibed Josh about knowing him before he developed his refined palate--'back when they ate a beige diet.'
In olden days when I was a scout, we had to hawk those bad boys door to door. When it came time to deliver them of course nobody was home. You had to schlepp them back home and try again. What a pain! Thank goodness my best customer was my mom. Delivery was a snap.
The chaps are josh carrott and ollie kendal they also do korean gentleman
$ also goes educational scholarships, they go to summer camps etc
I love the Samoas and Do-Si-dos. We put the Thin Mints in the freezer
May I suggest, you have gas in your digestive system from undigested sugars fermenting methane. Probably from drinking beer, which is made from malt cooked into a wart.
The US version of aldi has knock offs of some of these for less money. But I haven't seen the thin mint knock offs since the pandemic. But the peanut patties and carmel delite versions are usually there.
“Aint that a type of people??” 😭he funny for that
Obviously a 10 year old girl isn't going to be out selling cookies for 8 hours a day 7 days a week. To sell that many there are individuals or groups buying large quantities.
The girl who broke the record set up outside of a marijuana dispensary.
Some of the troops establish website to purchase cookies--removing the need to KNOW a Girl Scout. Might have been a Covid thing. But it does help the sales! Thin Mints need to be frozen to fully appreciate. Can you tell Mr. Smith has a sweet tooth?
Watch the Everybody Loves Raymond when Raymond gets beat up by his arch enemy, a mother.
I don't buy much. Only in the last few years have I bought any from my local dealer. I like the short bread ones and the caramel delights.
Girl Scout cookies are expensive but it is for a charity and they are cookies you really can't get any other time of the year so most of us suck it up and buy them. I would not pay that much for a package of cookies in a grocery store. I used to like the mint ones but now I really think they are too strong. I can eat a couple but then I am done. They are quite nice dunked in a cup of hot tea through. The caramel ones are too sweet for me but I do like the coconut and caramel idea and flavor...again, dunked in a hot cup of coffee I can eat several. From what I understand the girl who sold the most boxes had the help of her mother who had a business in a very high traffic area. Today I would set up my cookie stand next door to a marijuana dispensary or a weight loss clinic...preferably between the two of them. I am sure I would outsell everyone else in my Troop. I like the peanut butter ones the best. The chocolate covered patties and the peanut butter sandwich cookies are both the bomb. Americans like to dunk their crisp cookies and even their soft or chewy ones. I prefer crispy cookies so I always make my cookies with butter instead of vegetable shortening or oil. The money raised goes back to the Girl Scout Troops, to maintain and buy their camp chalets, to buy and maintain the sail boats for the Sea Scouts, for trips and outings, for Girl Scout Camp, materials for the individual troops and for supplies to do things to aid their communities. We used to pay "dues" at each meeting but it was just a tiny amount, I think a dime when I was a child. That money was used to buy food for our overnight camp outs or for food for a special party, things like that. Headquarters provided the money for the big projects.
You have to have the Thin Mints frozen.
Keep one thing in mind, they only sell these for 4 months out of the year, and MYSELF, and I know that I am not the only one, will buy several CASES of these cookies to last me through the 8 months when they are NOT selling them.
Thin Mints ate my favorite. 😊
The Samoa's are best when you pull them directly out of the freezer on a hot summer day.
Thin Mints taste a lot like mint chocolate chip ice cream.
The cookies used to be larger. I think are smaller because the full size cookies would cost more. The cookies are expensive because the baking co. earns part of the money and the G.S. Of America gets the other part.
The Girl Scouts make a lot of dough on their cookies.
USAMERICAN understand the price. It is high because it is a fund raiser.
My fav is the peanut butter. I've never had mint, or cinnamon.
Most USAMERICANS would never eat cookies with tea, milk or ice cream yes, not tea.
We would perhaps eat tea cakes (probably closer to what you call scones), with tea, or even coffee.
Girl Scouts cookies used to be delicious. My mother used to buy them when I was younger but now they are not good at all. They must have changed their recipes and their ingredients. They have to be following the trend of tainting our foods with chemicals because they taste artificial now. My family and I no longer buy them anymore, however I do miss the original Girl Scouts cookies, especially the Thin Mints and Shortbread cookies.
I will plow through multiple boxes of GSC in a week. Samosas are the best.
Samoas are my favorite....😋
Cold glass of milk.
Samoas are my favorites
has london fallen ?
I'm surprised they all didn't care for the thin mints.
From all these CZcams channels, a lot of people from the UK don't like mint or root beer. Because the flavors remind them of toothpaste and medicine?? 🤔🤨🤷♀️🤦♀️
Never had one of these that were to hard. Do they have bad teeth?
Always better dipped in milk!
They are a bit pricey, but you are buying a product and contributing to a charitable organization so people are willing to pay the price for them - especially since they only sell them for four months of the year.
They should not get paid. The purpose of selling cookies is to support the scouts, not self enrichment.
It's hard to say no to girl scouts.
Other than the Thin Mints and Samoas I don't recognize those, weird
Got something negative to say all the time. Hatein on 9 year olds who sell cookies is wild
To sell that many boxes she probably had her parents selling them to their colleagues.
Someone said her and her leader set up a table outside of a pot dispensary.
I think of them as mostly bland cookies that people buy to give charity to the Girl Scouts. They aren't cookies I would ever buy for myself otherwise. Some are better than others, but they're all meh when compared to other cookies.
Biscuits are NOT scones! Taste and texture are NOTHING like scones. You need to taste some real American biscuits so you can stop saying that.
A chocolate chip cookie dipped in milk is ELITE!
