This somehow seems like a very bad idea.. not just for waist lines everywhere but for people to find a young girl selling things....

@dawnblum: I get the concern but gone are the days of just the girls selling the cookies by themselves. They usually set up a table with their parents in front of a grocery store or a bank - basically a high traffic area.

Kellogg has one for the iPhone, too.

The parent of girl scout hits you up. This has happened to me several times. Now if you don't want to break your new years resolutions you can buy cookies and GSA sends them to soldiers over seas.

I've abandoned girl scout cookies because I realized that Keebler Grasshoppers were the same as Thin Mints...

Since the troop only gets something like 55 cents per $4 box, you might want to consider throwing in an extra buck, specifying that it's for the local troop only.

30% of the profit goes to the baker, about 15% to the troop, and the rest goes to the national organization. This isn't bad at all, just still not quite what you imagine when you buy cookies, thinking that you're helping local kids directly.

By the way, for those of non-christian religions or GLBT supporters, the girl scouts are more progressive than the boy scouts. The former admits atheists and gays, the latter doesn't.

I thought Girl Scout cookies were always in their respective boxes.

Should be called the "Meet Chris Hansen" app.

2012 - Phone app for detecting nearest supply of Girl Scout cookies released.

2014 - Phone app is reversed - Girl Scouts now deliver to interested buyers on-site.

2017 - Girl Scout cookies sent automatically to users. Opt-out system gathers dust and cobwebs.

2020 - Girl Scout cookies made mandatory by constitutional amendment, tracking devices installed in homes and offices.

2021 - Stock market plummets due to shortage of Thin Mints. Columbia invaded when key ingredient is revealed to be uncut cocaine.

2023 - Most US homes have new kitchen sinks installed, providing cookies alongside Hot and Cold water. Optional taps offering gravy, beer, and pie are also offered, but less popular.

2030 - To curb rising hyper-mega-obesity trend, wetware chips are installed into consumer's tongues to change the flavor of healthy, vitamin-rich, cardboard-like Soylent Mints.

2031 - Tampering of flavor chips leads to realization that ANYTHING can be made to taste like cookies. Zombie epidemic.

I've already ordered. If you need an app to find girl scout cookies you probably need to get out of your cave more often.

That said what is the price of the cookies, I was told $3.50 per box but I've heard others say $4 and $4.50 per box. Something Fishing is going on.

@robinbobcat: You're telling me I have to wait 19 more years for the Zombie Apocalypse? I better start loading up on MREs and ammo.
