Great idea ...hope it works out for you and/or friends near.
I have begun to inquire regarding GS cookies and they're fate in my area.
My son has recently bengan to work with a veterans organization. I will check for a possible need if I find cookie abuse in our neck of the woods.
Thank you for such a terrific idea! Thank to all of you out there who care enough to take the time to make even a small difference in perhaps a friend you just have'nt met yet!!!

thank you for pointing this out i wish they could go to the poor or our troops

Unbelievable! Who would authorize this action?

Evelyn Painter

GOOD QUESTION...SOMEONE WITHOUT A VET. OR SOLDIER, OR A SR. CITIZEN IN THE FAMILY, I BETCHA....

Reinstate Emma and come up with a plan to preclude destroying the cookies. Donate them to the USO, Feed the children, or some other charitable entity, take the tax deduction if you can.

George- you are so right! our troops serving overseas sacrifice so much for the rest of us ( you and me, and all) and an organization based on helping children learn ethics act this way! this 11 year old inspires me!!!

I have been sending packages including Girl Scout cookies to the troop for years. I say sent them to our troops and here at home to the hungry program for children.

I was a Brownie, Girl Scout and a Cadet. I established my earliest virtue's based on this pledge "On my honor, I will try to do my best....
" back to basics

I never hear from you anymore, Kathy Holder! Miss you...!!!

Donate all the extra to our troops!

Donna Bressler

Evelyn Painter

YES, FOR SURE..I HAVE SOME HERE FROM LAST YEAR THAT WERE NOT IN FREEZER ..JUST AS GOOD AS LAST YR WHEN I BOUGHT THEM.. AND SOME IN FREEZER WILL LAST FOR LONG TIME IN ZIP LOCK.. YUMMY.. SUCH A WASTE.. I SAW THIS AND CRIED...

I buy about 4 boxes a year. I am checking back on this issue, and until I see this brave little girl at least apologized to for wanting to do a good thing by eliminating waste and sending some love to our troops, I'm not buying another box!

Oh, and by apology, I mean a nationally recognized apology too.
