Does Anybody Need A Crapload of Girl Scout Cookies?

First off, I know that you're not allowed to sell Girl Scout Cookies over the Internet, but that's only if you're actually selling on behalf of the Girl Scouts and you're associated with them, and I'm neither -- I'll be putting you in touch with the man who is (who will remain nameless, as I don't want to get the dude in trouble).

But here's the deal: A buddy of mine here in Bend is getting screwed by the Girl Scouts. The troop he and his wife are involved in took on a bunch of extra cookies for booth sales (an estimated number). Last year they let you return unwanted and extras, but apparently this year (which was a surprise to them and bunch of phone calls hasn't helped), they wouldn't take them back. So they're stuck with over $1000 of Girl Scout cookies.

As it stands right now, he has the following (and each case of cookies is 12 boxes) Update: Total that's left has been updated as of 5/1:

Thin Mints (my wife's favorite and I've got a box on order): 14 About 4 Cases
Samoas (my personal favorite and I've got a box on order): 7 <1 Case
Tagalongs: 4 2 Cases
Allabouts: ~~1 case~~ 2 boxes

They usually sell for $4.00/box, but he's selling them for $3.50/box or $40 for an entire case ($3.33/box). He'll deliver anywhere in Bend, or ship if you PayPal him shipping.

If you're interested, contact me, comment here with a valid e-mail address and I'll put you in touch. You can also email cookies@utterlyboring.com and that redirects to his e-mail account.

He needs to liquidate as much as possible as soon as possible, as the deadline to pay this off is coming up fast.

Man, I remember those Girl Scout cookies! I'll be sure to add that to the list of things I miss from the US.

Please, No one tell my husband or I'll be trying to find a place to store a thousand dollars worth of girl scouts cookies. I have never seen him turn down buying a case at any opportunity.

...wish I'd known about this a couple of weeks ago....I just bought 2 cases of The Mints.

Those things are worse than Crack.

Ohh I would have loved the idea BUT....the problem here is the Board of Ed thinks giving the kiddos 20 boxes each of chocolate bars to sell is the key to fundraising...Everyone is knocking on doors..and I mean everywhere (they use to have the student's parents sign for them)..I am almost tempted to open a few and eat them on the boards expense so to speak..I'll raise whomever 2 bars of almond covered chocolates to 2 boxes of the mint GG cookies?
...reminds me of the episode when Raymond had to help sell those things..it was funny then..but now...

Who wouldn't want a bunch of girlscout cookies? I would buy them all, if I had the extra money. They are the best things to munch on when you have a lot of friends over, and no inclinations to make a "healthy snack".
