My too. They could bank on me buying girl scout cookies. Now when I see the girls and mommas selling cookies, I stop to witness to them.
It might have something to do with them being $4 a box, too. That whole supply / demand / price thing that liberals struggle so hard to understand.
It’s been about a decade since I purchased a box of girl scout cookies. I just ignore the tables set up outside grocery store entry-ways. At first, I felt a little bad for the girls, but then I looked at their mothers who voluntarily put them in an organization whose goal is to destroy these girls.
Once the girl scout organization joined with Planned Parenthood so that the members could be fully indoctrinated in the narrative that killing their babies was “reproductive freedom” the GS’s lost my support.
I have not bought them in years and never will again. I have my girls in the American Heritage Girls.
Buy 1-2 cases of the peanut butter cookies each year. They went up this year but that was expected. They extended the sales until later in April due to supply issues I was told by one of the parents.
I too bought GS cookies yearly. When they went leftist I ceased.
Like the Boy Scouts, it is an organization that has gotten rotten.
I said forget it!
Don’t buy crap! Boxed, overprocessed chemicals and refined sugar are basically poison. Maybe Girl Scouts could go back to baking homemade chocolate chip cookies and then they’d have something worth buying. Flour, baking powder, eggs, brown sugar, chocolate chips, maybe some walnuts... not exactly healthy, but delicious and they won’t give you cancer.
I do it every year at a local setup....”As soon as you stop promoting abortion, I’ll buy your cookies again”.
Just give the girls cash directly. The cash will stay with the Troop. Which is generally run by decent moms
Cookie money mostly funded the leadership up in my which are a bunch of whackadoo leftists and dykes
Little Brownie Bakers overwhelmingly failed the Girl Scouts this year, offering the usual rainbow of Biden era excuses (weather, supply chain disruption, labor shortages). It wasn’t limited to raspberry cookies.
The Girl Scouts USA (and the YWCA) are just groomer programs for lesbians. They got wrecked when feminazi Patricia Ireland took over. Placing girls in these organizations is like putting them in a rape environment.
I sold those cookies back in the late '60s and early '70s. I was one of the top sellers in my town. I received exactly ZERO results for my efforts. When I became a Cadette Scout, I decided the my rewards did not equal my efforts. I immediately found some other line of work with salary commensurate for my work.
I haven’t bought their cookies since they started supporting abortion.
very clever marketing - use child labor to sell your products and you make a killing, while they get a bone. the cookie manufacturer makes tons, the GSA make tons, the troop gets a little, and the kids do all the work for free.
The invisible hand gets caught in the cookie jar. The girls could be taught some economic realities...or that capitalism doesn’t work.
They weren’t out in front of grocery stores this year so I also didn’t buy my usual 40 bucks worth. However, clearly they did good when demand is higher than supply. You want that as a company.
Sorry girls. I’ve woken up and moved on. It is so, so sad.
Me three
We stopped buying GS cookies when we found out they send money to Planned Parenthood.
