Is this the greatest hustle of all time? I just paid $6 for some mediocre smores cookies yet I can't help but appreciate the business model. The Girl Scouts of America basically relies on child labor to sell cookies. Everything else like the camping and the friendship bracelets are second to that goal.

the smores cookies are utter shit. try a samoa.

but you can buy knock off girl scout cookies at savalot or walmart. same shit. not hard to make cookies.

they're inedible garbage, I wish there was a way to just give them a donation and get them out of my face, instead I have to throw out the cookies myself

the more important fact is the girlscout bakery is a subsidiary of keebler, and there is a keebler equivalent of all girl scout cookies made with the same recipe available all year round. Twice the amount for half the price

IMO it's worth the price. Sometimes I'll even give them a little more money for a little something extra. ;)
>>
>>8651364
I don't know. I genuinely don't get why people go apeshit over thin mints like that. maybe it's a meme? the funny thing is that I've never seen an actual girl scout in my fucking life but everyone and their mom buys and talks up the cookies every year.

"values and shit"
Look, dude. I was both a girl scout and a venture scout, which is an offshoot of the boy scouts that girls can join. I didn't learn shit in girl scouts besides that you don't do anything interesting there, and selling stuff nets a good profit for the organization that bores you to death. Venture scouts? Knot tying, sailing, camping, camp grilling, etc.

Good goy

My sister was a girl scout for pretty much all of her childhood, and I had to help sell them a few times. In general, I think the whole practice is kind of sketchy, and I don't support it. For the most part, people involved with the organization do it on a volunteer basis, and meeting spaces are also usually donated. To be a girl scout requires fees for uniforms and stuff that troops usually don't see. And selling cookies is mandatory, even though the girls selling them don't usually see much of a reward from it (except for maybe a discounted rate at camp if they sell a shitload). So, most of that money probably goes to executives. And the whole process involves teaching children to manipulate adults (the organization knows people only buy them because girls are cute, and they tell girls how to exploit that) and shill for things in a way that I'm not entirely comfortable with. Especially because I know that a lot of the girls doing the selling didn't really want to be doing it in the first place. A lot of girls in my sister's troop really hated this time of the year, because it meant spending their weekends standing outside of a store (sometimes in the cold) and uncomfortably asking adults for money.

And on top of that, they're really not worth the ridiculous price they go for now. It all seems too exploitative to me.

Do you have any evidence this actually happens? I don't remember my sister getting anything for selling cookies, except a badge, the possibility of reduced fees for camp, and maybe a few trinkets. She certainly didn't get any actual money for it.

>>8654627
To be more clear, it's not technically mandatory (no one makes anyone sell cookies, or penalizes them for not doing it), but the pressure from the troop leaders is so high that no one really refuses.

So much this. The United Way doesn't get its $300,000 salaries from Santa Claus. They take it out of the donations you send. Then they give the rest to other charities that give $100,000 salaries to their own executives.

One "nonprofit" a friend used to work for routinely spends 80% of its donations on the CEO. He owns the office park that he rents to the "nonprofit" at inflated rates. He gets a new Corvette every three years as his company provided vehicle. His appearance at news conferences is important to the "nonprofit" so he gets to go to Hong Kong twice a year to shop for new suits (along with his wife, who also has a no-show "job" at the "nonprofit"). He gets a substantial salary. His kids get paid for doing nothing.

20% gets spent on actual work. The rest all ends up in his pockets. He's a multimillionaire.

IDK what your guys issues are but Girl Scouts was definitely a pretty cool experience for me. I was in a troop that would use their cooking selling money to raise money for trips and stuff. We did a couple of domestic trips and also even managed to go to England for one of them. Was pretty cool. Though we did only get like $1 for a $4 box so I will admit it was exploitive.

Former Boy Scout here and I believe it's more than $1.00 (though not much) and it goes to the troop, not the individual Girl Scouts.

Back in my (late 70s) our Boy Scout troop sold fertilizer every spring and sold quite a bit, (most of a tractor trailer full) as most people are going to need weed & feed now that spring is on the way and we'd (that is, our dads) would deliver it right to their door.
