When I was in GS one year I had 12 cases at my house (mom was troop leader) and we couldn't store them where we had our meetings. Yes
Cases ladies and my dad decided it was a free for all on cookies ($2.00 then). He was a p'oed when I served him a bill of $30 for all the cookies he nibbled on!
My fave is Thin Mints and Do-si-Do's
Old faves (no longer make)
The Oreo versions (chocolate sandwich and vanilla sandwich)
The Lemon sandwich cookie (I LOVED THAT COOKIE) we only had it for 2 years.
Least favorite: Samoas ( i hate coconut w/ a passion).
All this is from the 80's....
I took pre-orders in HS and the day that we could officially start selling I was delivering cookies when most were just getting their orders. My locker in school stayed full of cookies (had to share a locker with a friend for my books).
The only thing i hated was the profit scale for the actual troop. We got peanuts compared to how much we sold (had at least 3 folks that sold 250+ boxes still have my badge). and the prizes we got. I still have a bear that fits in the palm of my hand he was so small!
