Considering the point is to bring profits in for Girl Scouts, Walmart could give $0.01 from each box sold and still do better than girl scouts profits while allowing the Girl Scouts to find a more valuable way to bring in revenue. GIRL SCOUT COOKIES ARE A SCAM! GOOD FOR WALMART! At least in Canada. 12 boxes of cookies that sell for $4 each bring in only $0.50 profit from each box. $6 profit... The cookie company is the ones making money on this fundraiser... Scouts have Apple Day which brings in over $30 profit per Scout and only a few hours of work! Just because this Girl Scout Cookies is a tradition, doesn't mean it should continue... Congrats to whoever made this cookies and congrats to walmart distributing them!

Have not seen too much floating around about this, but will do some more digging. Tks for unearthing this.

These things take some time, but I'm betting they are willing to ride this one out.
