KatieBeth said:This passed year, I had one family who lived right next door to me who had a little girl in the Girl Scouts. Upon meeting them, I told them how excited we were to get GS cookies. THE MOM came over to get the order RIGHT NEXT DOOR, and THE MOM delivered the cookies. After putting in a substantial order, we were hit up by three more moms (more friends of mine) for orders. Those moms also delivered the cookies. I announced after we received our cookies that I would not purchase any more cookies until a TRUE GIRL SCOUT IN FULL UNIFORM showed up at my door to sell them. I have standards, you know. What are these girls learning if the mom is always selling/delivering the product? I asked where the GS was, and three moms told me that they were at home playing. No more!! Ha!

When I came out, they were gone, but there was a table with 3 moms, 2 girls, and one of the Moms asked me to buy. I have a $10 bill in my hand. I told her and the girls that I only buy GS cookies when I am asked by a girl scout/brownie not a parent. The little girls still did not ask and after being prompted 4 times by the mom, she asked. I smiled and said, "You need to be sure and ask yourself. That is why you are working a booth. My daughter always had to ask herself." and walked away. I drove the the other door (yes two tables from two different troops at the Wal-mart at the same time. I stopped in front of the table. There was 5 Moms and 1 child who was sitting in one of the mom's lap. I waited and again a Mom asked me. I told her the same thing I told the other girls. I decided to drive up one more time to the first table. When the mom saw it was me, she nudged the girl and both of them came to my car door and asked. I bought 3 boxes. I told them to remember to ask themselves. My daughter bought 4 boxes from a girl at church because she asked and one from a mom who had a 1st grader.
I'm glad to see so many parents above saying they tell their children to sell. My daughter was a top seller each year but she worked many hours at the booths (especially when no one else wanted to) and always had high sales. I never asked...just watched the money!
