Today, more Girl Scouts have become business-savvy: I think boxes go for $4, and they know how to strategically appeal to college students. If reading this has made you nostalgic for cool, chocolatey Thin Mints or Do-Si-Dos or Samoas (don’t call them Caramel deLites, seriously, stop), cookies are going to be sold at 97 Audubon Street from Monday to Thursday from 3-6 pm. So on your way to TD Gheav/Moe’s/career advice, stop by, help some girls win a giant stuffed animal, and stock up on Samoas. Again, they’re not Caramel deLites–and at least 112 people agree with me.

I made rounds of my cul-de-sac and the nearby ones, and got a keychain shaped like a Hawaiian dancing cookie as a reward. I was not business-savvy enough to win any of the giant stuffed animals.
