It turns out that the troop gets to keep 100% of a donation, but gets just a few cents for every box of cookies they sell.

exactly - the girls see very little of the $ for their hard work selling....I never knew that till my girls were involved in scouting.

I love to see those kids standing in front of the market giving their sales pitch. Learning to sell is a great skill to learn at a young age. Besides, they are cute as hell, I can't help but buy several boxes. Most of the time I just give them the money amd let them keep the cookies.
