The price of cookies at the supermarket usually drops a little during Girl Scout cookie season.
My favorite type of Girl Scout cookies have always been their chocolate covered peanut butter cookies... they were called “tagalongs” but I think that their name changes every few years. We used to buy a bunch every year from the neighbor girl and others selling them outside of supermarkets. But the neighbor girl grew up and I haven't seen any girl scouts selling cookies outside of a supermarket recently.
I did find a product at Walmart that I enjoy a little more than the genuine Girl Scout product. The covered cookie part is chocolate instead of vanilla and they are absolutely delicious. They also cost less about a third of what we paid the girl scouts most recently. These are the “Great Value Fudge-Covered Peanut Butter-Filled Cookies, 9.5 oz” which are a $1.77 where we live and online.
They were sold out at every Walmart that we visited a month ago, so we ordered them online. Unfortunately, they were delivered on a warm day and were melted, but they still tasted fine once we got them cooled back down... The plastic trays they are in, actually do have a purpose other than making you think that you are getting more cookies than you really are.

You have to buy $30 of Walmart goods to get free shipping to your house, but if you order online you can often pickup items that they haven't bothered to put on the shelves yet and there is no shipping fee. Where we are at, they bring your order out to the car with almost no delay after you “check in” with the “Walmart App” on your phone.
Of course, Walmart does not have their online features perfected after more than ten years, so there can still be complications. I have a love/hate relationship with them. One of our daughters worked for them for years and they were very helpful to her.
The $ store kills them.
