Title: Girl Scout Cookies @ www.eatyummythings.com - limited time
Post by: linenoise on March 10, 2015, 06:04:00 AM
My niece is trying to earn a Kindle this year by selling 1500 boxes.  So far she's sold over 1100 but she's a few hundred boxes short so I setup a website to help her along.  My driveway is the local cookie supply location so I currently have a trailer with hundreds of boxes of cookies sitting in my driveway in a frozen state (It's Michigan after all)

Shipping is the only downside but it's not that much of a problem with flat rate pricing.

Cookies are $4 a box.
I can fit up to 5 boxes in a mid sized USPS shipping box which ships anywhere in the US for $12.65. 

I've set up a website using coinbase for payments. I'm doing things at cost.

Any questions feel free to PM me.

PS. The local girl scout troop also accepts donations for buying cookies and giving those to the local VA hospital. PM me if you're interested.

How many cookies are their in each box? You should mention it somewhere on your website. Wasn't able to find this info.

You have some competition from aacoin and his prices are cheaper...$3.50 per box.

By the way, why aren't your prices quoted in Bitcoin? This isn't Fiat Forum!

It varies by cookie how many there are. The shortbread and thanks-a-lot are larger cookies, thin mints are smaller. Others are in between. Each box has 14 ounces of cookies. I'll see about actual counts. I may just have to get a box of each for myself.


Different girl scout chapters charge different amounts. The region here set it at $4 so I can't get them any cheaper. I'm afraid I have to buy the cookies in fiat since girl scouts don't accept BTC, so I have to price them in USD. The local boy scout troop couldn't even take a bitcoin donation last year.

Nice to see these cookies pop up everywhere :P
Unfortunately your site seems like a blank page only, might want to look into that.

Tue is the last day to order from me until the sale starts again next year. Thanks for the support, it's going to be a close call if my niece gets to her goal.
