OMG...I love the mint ones and the caramel ones and I totally forgot to order! I usually get hit up by so many that I order a box from all of them and either give them away or stash in my freezer. This year, I only had one little girl ask me and shw was my co-workers daughter and I was busy at the time. I told her to leave the book on the counter and I'd order. She never asked again and I forgot to leave an order. Is it too lateL?

I agree check with your co-worker.Around here even after they take their orders they set up on sidewalks in front of stores and inside malls as well selling them.If you get no where within a few days with your co-worker then look up and call a local girl scout troop leader.We always end up ordering from girls,then still buy more from girls at the stores and malls. Good luck

I really like the shortbread cookies, of course the thin mints are good too. I haven't had any girl scout cookies in a long time. I hate to pay what they want for a box.

My favorite ones are the Caramel Delights. In some places they are called Samoas, but the Samoas have dark chocolate on them. The Caramel Delights have milk chocolate. I really like Thin Mints too though. I freeze my Thin Mints and eat them straight out of the fridge. I did not order any this year.

Some areas have Samoas and some have Caramel Delights. When I was a girl scout in Illinois they were Samoas. Here in Missouri they are Caramel Delights.

I like the mints. I also like the peanut butter ones but you only get like 8 in a box so it isn't nearly the deal that the mints are. At work we generally chip in and get a couple boxes of each and that seems to work out well for everyone.

I like the thin mints and the Semoas? the best. I have not even been approached this year. I think their sales will go down since they reduced the amount again.

I like the chocolate covered peanut butter one. My girls were girl scouts for 11 years and I was the leader. Some years my dining room looked like a cookie warehouse as the troops order would be at my house. The girls would compete with each other to see who could sell the most. They learned a lot about budgets, planning what to do with their profit, the presentation of the product at their cookie booth's, customer service and money handling skills. Please support Girl Scouts/Girl Guides in your area. Our future women need our encouragement to be successful.

So far, I would have to say the peanut butter. Among all the girl scout cookies we've purchased (we bought every flavor, I think), I simply find the peanut butter particularly good. It seems to be caressing my taste buds every time I eat it. Have a fun time enjoying your girl scout cookies and Happy myLotting, dfollin!

Honestly, I've never tried them. The girl scouts here in my country (perhaps area) doesn't sell those. Hehehe... Neither do they have those in their offices. I just don't know why.

Girl Scout cookies? I never heard of that one. Where can you buy that? I am just curious how it taste? We don;t usually buy cookies but we made ours every week. We always have cookies at home but not the girl scout cookie.. We always have chocolate chip cookie.. I love that cookie but I want to try that what you said, girl scout cookie.

I don't believe it! You live in the states and we are the same age and you have never heard of girl scout cookies?! I cannot remember a year going by when we did not have girl scout cookies.The Girl Scouts sell them every year.Usually January thru March as a funraiser.They have different flavors.The ones that I can think of off the top of my heard is Tagalongs(chocolate covered with peanut butter filling),Mints,another peanut butter cookie,which is also peanut butter filled,Butternut,Dulce(Caramel),Samoras (coconut) and I believe there are more.I just can't think of them now.They are wonderful!

well, I am an immigrant and have been in United States for 2 yeast and staying at home most of the time. We are living in a country where there are no girl scouts selling cookies. hahahaha we are far from the school area where students pass by and sell their cookies. But now I know where can you buy girl scout cookies..

My favorite girl scoot cookie is the thin mints. Actually, my husband's friend's daughter is selling them. I ordered the thin mints for me and short bread for my husband. I was so disappointed when my husband's friend delivered them, he did not bring what I ordered. He brought two boxes of lemon, they are good, but my taste buds were geared up for the thin mints. I did not say anything because he lives over an hour away, and I did not want him to travel that far just to replace cookies.

I love thin mints. Its the only ones i prefer. There is another kind that rarely i get a taste for. I hate that i am dieting while girl scout cookies are being sold. Another thing i hate is girl scout cookie prices have gone up.

I like thin mints too.We get those too.All food prices have gone up,so it did not surprise me that the girl scout cookies did too.
