Plus any time there is a fundraiser like this I expect to pay more because I know the organization has to pay the manufacturers for production expenses. It’s not like out of a $5 box the GS nets $5. Plus it’s a good learning lesson for the girls on entrepreneurship and customer service that they do alongside their families.

Absolutely true
Many years ago, my son was a submariner out at sea with his 21st birthday coming up. At the same time, my daughter was selling Girl Scout cookies. We decided to buy 70 boxes of cookies and send them to him on the sub. He will tell you to this day that was his favorite present ever. They had been out at sea for more than 6 months and getting those cookies was like a taste of home. It made an entire crew of sailors happy. It wasn't too long after that that the Girl Scouts took donations for cookies to be sent overseas every year.

@@mikatee2599 I do wish that the idea was entirely altruistic, but I honestly think it was a case of what do we get our son who has extremely limited storage on a sub, something that would be acceptable and allowed via the Navy and something he would like and at the same time trying to find the time and selling skills to sell more than 100 boxes of cookies. Either way, it worked out better than we would ever have expected. I don't know that this was the reason that the M Girl Scouts started the donation ability for troops but I know it was popular enough that our troop did it the very next year and was very popular.

It's only truly racist if the people themselves are offended by it. If the Samoan people are not offended by the name, then why should we be concerned. I know several people groups have things named after them and they are not offended, but rather honored by it. In the end, only their opinion truly depicts whether or not it is racist. If they are fine with it, or even are honored by it, then just let it be.

Samoa cookies
I’m in high school now, and I’ve been doing Girl Scouts since I was around 6-7. We currently sell the boxes for $6 a box. We only make $1.05 from each box we sell. That extra five cents is from us opting out of prizes. My troop has 6 girls and we sell 8,000 boxes as a troop each season. We get to go to Dodger games, water parks and theme park because of the cookies we sell as a troop. We are actually planning a trip to Iceland with our money. But it’s taken us 5 years, and doing fundraisers, and negotiating and fighting with Girl Scouts. What we as troops do for them is a lot of work, for very little gain.

When I was a Girl Scout (many, many years ago), I lived near a large VA Hospital. We would set up in the lobby and at least half the people coming through the door would buy a box of cookies as a gift for whoever they were visiting. We did a very good business! Joke was, we couldn’t afford to buy the cookies ourselves.

I'm a troop leader for 7 to 9-year-old Girl Scouts (Brownies) and those girls WORK to sell those cookies. This year our troop of 100 girls sold the most cookies in our entire council. With the money we earned, we were able to take every girl on a camping trip and they didn't have to pay a thing! It's a great way to get girls involved in their community and we teach our Brownies about STEM subjects like math, engineering, robotics, coding, and cybersecurity. They also learn about life skills like art, money management, outdoor safety, and self-care.

Here in my state we have a mix of both it seems. But when I was a Girl Scout back in the 90s they were definitely Tag-alongs, Do-si-dos, and Samoas for us. It now seems that here in my state we get products from both bakeries depending on the area you are from. Do you remember a sandwich cookie they had back in the 90s that had a strawberry jelly with sugar in the center of the top that was cut out? Those were my favorite.

It's pointless unless they are given the stuff without knowing what it is or where it comes from. UK kids definitely have a bias against US snacks, same as a lot of people from the US would have the idea that UK food is bland even before they try anything from the UK. These videos need to be blind testing to ever be taken seriously. Like these kids saying they don't like thin mints because it tastes like toothpaste is the most ridiculous opinion ever. The entire US uses mint toothpaste and thin mints are still by far the most popular cookie. They didn't want to like the cookie and that's why they didn't like it. Tell them it's a new UK product and I'll bet that the same people that didn't like the thin mints would say they like it.

It's the same thing with grape and blackcurrant, over here we barely have grape flavoured items, and all are replaced with (superior 😅) blackcurrant counterparts, even purple skittles are! And so if an American tried a blackcurrant thing such as Ribena and said they didn't like it its the same sort of thing, really popular here as we've gotten used to it, and not so popular over in America, so less inclined to like the product as much. Quick question for you lads in America, how do you feel with blackcurrants - do you like it or not or is it just not really a thing in the USA

That's the thing, I just realized it at the end of the vid, where the kid said if they were at his door, he'd still go to store and get some other cookies instead. Exactly. Even their best cookies aren't as good as my favorite cookies I can buy at that store, all the time, for waaay less money.
Troop commissions range based on the amount that they sell but typically range between $0.80-0.95 a package. My troop was able to pay for a 4 day trip to a horse riding ranch last year with our proceeds. A Girl Scout can be between 5-18 years old and the money can go towards funding community projects. We have a community garden at a retirement home that we maintain with our proceeds as well.

Our physical selling season (selling at grocery stores/door-to-door) started in early-mid January and ended end of February. We also had online/shipping options 😉 our troop only gets about .85 cents profit per box sold, the rest goes to our local council & Girl Scout headquarters. Boxes sell for $5-6 each.

Brits don't really eat anything mint other than mint jelly with lamb, so they associate it a lot more with toothpaste. Since Americans eat lots of other mint things we don't have that association and it tastes good to us. But yes, frozen is MUCH better.

The boys are great fun but the headmaster is the main character! He's so committed to his work, devoted to his kids, and a good sport who's up for anything. He went with the Fulham boys to Korea for boot camp! He, in my book, is an absolute champ!

It’s important to know that there are two bakeries that make Girl Scout cookies: Little Brownie Bakers (the original baking company) and ABC Bakery. They supply different regions of the US, and you can tell which is which based on the names they call the cookies. The original cookie names (Tagalong, Samoas, Dosidos) hail from Little Brownie Bakers. After living in regions that had both, I can say that cookies come from Little Brownie Bakers are superior - the taste is just way better overall, but then again they are the original bakery!

Oh my god those girls made bag, yall probably bought 2-3 of everything! As a former girl scout myself, cookie selling was always my favorite part. When I was a kid in the 90s, we earned points based on how many cookies we sold, individually and as a troop, and there were benchmarks for rewards as a troop (for instance if we sell 3000 boxes the entire troop gets to go to the girl scout summer camp) and as an individual (one year I traded in my points for a doorbell and an inflatable chair lol). We HUSTLED. It was always a lot of fun and it got me socializing with and talking to people as a young autistic child in a way that was really valuable for my long term ability to mask and operate in society.

I was in Girl Scouts back in elementary through high school. I also remember during cookie season my troop used to do sell cookies at a restaurant ( we had permission). My two personal favorites are the thin mints( frozen ) and peanut butter patties.
I remember my troop would go with the cadets and juniors to one of the girl scout campgrounds in NY after cookie season was over. Was such a fun experience
When I was in the U.S Navy on deployment the crew would get care packages of Girl Scout Cookies and other products donated to us. It was awesome. My favorites are the Samoas and the Peanut Butter (all) ones.

Thank you for your service. When my son was in Afghanistan, I’d send him crazy Asian snacks and koolaid.
5:10 Well, as an ex-Girl scout, about 60% of the earnings go to the actual company, abour 20-21% go to covering the cost of baking the cookies and the cookie-selling program cost, and the rest goes to the troop to be able to do other activities. My troop used to plan a huge camping trip every year, maybe a couple ice-skating days and stuff like that, and we'd use the rest to donate to the community.
I love when y'all go to the school, Ilove the principal lol. He's always game to try anything. Its nice to see the kids as they grow older too. Thin mints are my favorite. I buy at least 10 boxes and stick them in the freezer.
FYI....there are Girl Scouts...Blue Birds and Brownies. I was a Brownie back in 1975. I'm old😂😂😂. Best time of my life...we camped and hiked and learned first-aid and had real close friends for life. Great organization and cookies are the financial stability for many young girls across America....
That one kid who said he’d go to the corner market instead reminded me of when I was a Brownie (Canada) going door to door with the Guides selling cookies and one house a gruff man told us he wouldn’t buy any because he didn’t believe in cookies. Shattered my whole little world. 😆

My daughter is a girl scout (a Daisy) and this was her first cookie season. She sold the highest in her group! It was actually lots of fun and my daughter, who is 6, really learned a lot about money management, customer service skills, etc.
I was a Girl Scout in the late 70s/early 80s. We went door-to-door hawking our cookies. I hit up my relatives and paper route customers. We learned social skills talking to strangers and how to handle money/make change. We used the funds to buy camping equipment, etc. for the troop. I still have my vest and all the badges I earned (none for selling cookies). I still love supporting the Girl Scouts buying cookies and donating several boxes to the troops. My favorite are the Samoas, and I've been known to eat a sleeve of Thin Mints in one sitting in the past.

I'm now 45 and I was a Girl Scout from 7 to 13. I always sold enough cookies to pay for my next year's uniforms and at least one week-long camp. One year I sold enough to pay for 3 week-long camps, all my uniforms, and donate the rest to the fund for scouts in need. Beyond hocking cookies, we also volunteered at retirement homes, cleaned up local parks, volunteered with needy children, and other community activities. Loved my years of scouts with my friends.
