Remind me to tell you sometime about the GEMA folks who landed a helicopter next to our booth sale last year just to get Thin Mints. <BR/>The sf Chocolate Chip cookies REALLY aren't bad at all. <BR/>But I'll chop off someone's appendage if they touch my Samoas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21408841.post-9248414230702189132008-03-03T09:25:00.000-06:002008-03-03T09:25:00.000-06:00I have to admit that I made a similar error in ord...I have to admit that I made a similar error in ordering-judgement. I ordered the Samoas for Dave (because he said 'be sure to get the purple ones'), but neglected the Thin Mints. I think he was sitting on the couch when I ordered the cookies, so it's not entirely my fault! He was not pleased when our doorbell rang...<BR/>But when we passed The Table in front of the grocery store, he swerved the car, narrowly missing a little old lady, and forgot to put the car in park because he was running so fast to get the Thin Mints. <BR/>I won't make the same mistake again!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03791242249964743766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21408841.post-84476801867455700702008-03-03T06:11:00.000-06:002008-03-03T06:11:00.000-06:00My husband would be in serious danger if he forgot...My husband would be in serious danger if he forgot to order those peanut butter-chocolate things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21408841.post-3506442264326927722008-03-02T18:50:00.000-06:002008-03-02T18:50:00.000-06:00I LOVE Samoas, they are my favorite!

My mom and I went shopping today and stopped to eat at Applebee's. We ordered something from the Weight Watchers menu and I wanted to cry...and I have been known to cry over food. It's such an overwhelming process, which is why a little Samoa every now and then should be acceptable!Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14687890848136109271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21408841.post-75749935103007824862008-03-02T18:14:00.000-06:002008-03-02T18:14:00.000-06:00Here are the contents of my freezer, currently - 3...Here are the contents of my freezer, currently - 3 boxes of Thin Mints, 2 boxes of Tagalongs, 1 box of Samoas, and 2 boxes of Lemon Cremes.

It would have been unethical for me not to buy. So I am trying to pretend they are not in the house. It is totally true that "Thin Mints" is an oxymoron if there ever was one. : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21408841.post-39631178329374881632008-03-01T17:11:00.001-06:002008-03-01T17:11:00.001-06:00In every corner of the mall and in front of every ...In every corner of the mall and in front of every Walmart, there was a Girl Scout - dressed like a cookie and selling ALLLLLL precious varieties of GS cookies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
