Most of you are talking about buying them from the girl scouts- you dont have the orderforms ahead of time and the cookies come a month later? That's what we do in Iowa. I know when I was in Lansing, MI for a conference 2 years ago there were girlscouts standing outside a bookstore selling cookies- I just thought their mother had bought a case and was making them sell them.
That's what we normally do - in fact, my mother has a couple boxes on order. But the big thing around here is getting 3-4 Girl Scouts (and their mothers) together at a grocery store, and selling them. They had at least forty empty "crates" (the bigger boxes that the boxes of cookies come in) at the store I was at yesterday - and that was at around 10 am. The store even provided bags for them!
