I'm not sure how fresh they are...but I eat them so fast I don't even
taste them anyway.

Good eating.

If you like Thin Mints, you might enjoy Keebler Grasshopper Fudge Mint
Cookies, which are available at most large groceries.

Actual Girl Scout Cookies come from two companies:

"The Girl Scouts use two baking companies, Little Brownie Bakers in
Louisville, Ky., and ABC Bakers in Richmond, Va."

I used to be a Girl Scout leader, and at that time the bakers who made
Girl Scout Cookies were under contract not to market similar cookies
under another name. If this is still the case, you may not be able to
obtain genuine GSA cookies until the next sales drive.

"Q: Can I purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ online?

A: For safety and security reasons, Girl Scouts of the USA's National
Board of Directors adopted an online sales policy that reads in part:

"Sales on a Web site on the Internet* of any products sold in
'council-sponsored product sales,' such as Girl Scout cookiesŪ, candy,
nuts, calendars or magazine subscriptions, may not be conducted by
anyone at anytime."

    * "Sales on the Internet include online auctions, broadcast e-mail
messages, and/or posting on individual Girl Scout, troop/group or Girl
Scout council Web sites."

Girl Scouts can use e-mail to let family and friends know they are
selling cookies. We suggest you contact your local Girl Scout council
(see How can I purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ? for ways to locate it)
and ask for specific guidelines.


Q: How can I purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ?

A: The best way to purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ is from local Girl
Scouts. To find them, contact your local Girl Scout council by:

   1. Using the Girl Scout Council Finder.
   2. Looking in the white pages of your telephone book under "Girl
Scouts." If you call the council, volunteers or staff there can help
you find a cookie booth or a Girl Scout troop/group near you.

Selling Girl Scout cookies is a program activity for girls. Each of
our 316 Girl Scout councils develops the procedures and guidelines for
its cookie activities, including the dates when you can order or
purchase cookies and the price per box. A council conducts only one
cookie sale per year. Most of these activities take place between
January and April, but some occur in October and November."
