How'd you guys score so early? They were just taking orders here a couple of weeks ago, and the actual cookies don't come in until the middle of April.

It must depend on area or which council you report to. My daughter is selling cookies in SE PA. We took orders in early January and the direct sale runs 1/22-3/8.

This Sunday is the last day for our cookie sale. I've seen about 500 boxes go through my house so far. I lost count of how many we opened for our own enjoyment. Plus I stashed two of each kind in the freezer for later.

It's like a bad habit...when I run out I just call my 'dealer' and she shows up with more.

Those Samoas should come with an ER crew.
They are good but man are they deadly.
Don't do the dumb thing I did.
Don't read the package or you will guilt yourself into never eating them again, specially after my visits to my Cardiologist.
Boy I miss them.

My fiance said that the names are dependent on the baker of the cookies, so each state may be different. There are two bakers, Little Brownie Bakers and ABC Bakers. Some cookies are only made by only one of the companies, the ones that are made by both have different names except for Thin Mints which are made by both.

Samoas - Caramel DeLites
Tag-a-longs - Peanut Butter Patties
Do-si-dos - Peanut Butter Sandwich
Trefoils - Shortbread

still tasty though!!

If someone could get me two boxes of Samoas and two boxes of Thin Mints I might be willing to send some Habanos Torres out.
