It depends on the cookie company chosen by the Girl Scout council. There are two cookie companies which provide Girl Scout cookies and they must offer 8 different kinds of cookies.
Both companies offer Thin Mints, Trefoils/Shortbread, Tagalongs/Peanut Butter Patties, Do-Si-Dos/Peanut Butter Sandwich, and Samoas/Caramel deLites. The other four cookies change every so often and are different depending on the cookie company. Currently (2011) for sale are: Thank You Berry Munch, Lemonades, Dulce de Leche, Lemon Chalet Cremes, Thanks-A-Lot, and Shout Outs.
There is no official record kept of Girl Scout cookie sales, however, the following girls have made the news for their cookie sales:
In 2008, 15-year-old Jennifer Sharpe from Dearborn, Michigan sold 17,328 boxes of cookies. This was a new record for her troop and possibly an all-time record.
From 1978 to 1990, Elizabeth Brinton, the "Cookie Queen", of Falls Church, VA, sold a total of more than 100,000 boxes of cookies. Elizabeth sold 11,200 boxes of cookies in 1985 and 18,000 boxes in a later year.

The first known Girl Scout cookie sale was in 1917 when the Mistletoe Troop in Muskogee, Oklahoma, baked cookies and sold them in its high school cafeteria as a service project. In 1934, Girl Scouts of Greater Philadelphia (Pennsylvania) became the first Girl Scout council to sell commercially baked cookies.
In which type of society did people continually move to search for food and shelter because they did not know how to grow food or domesticate animals?
There are approximately 200 million boxes of Girl Scout cookies sold each year. The top selling Girl Scout cookie is the Thin Mint which accounts for 25% of total Girl Scout cookies sold.

13 boxes of cookies times $3.75: 13 x 3.75 = $48.75
Since Girl Scout cookies are packaged and sold within a short time, they do not mark the boxes. About the only way to be sure the cookies are fresh is to buy them directly from a Girl Scout or a Girl Scout Council. Another way would be to compare the box with current boxes because the boxes change every few years. Also, some new kinds come out every year or two, so you could check to make sure that kind of cookie is being sold during the current year. If not, you would know the cookies are old. GSUSA does not recommend buying Girl Scout cookies online as there is no way to know how fresh the cookies are.
Each case of Girl Scout cookies contains 12 boxes so: 2 x 12 x 3.50 = $84.00
If 23 boxes represent 10% of the troop's sales, then we can divide 23 by 0.10 to find the total sales of the troop. The troop sold 230 boxes of Girl scout cookies.
Since each Girl Scout council controls their cookie sale, and there are two different cookie companies, this may be difficult to determine. In my experience, 100 boxes was the average for our area.
Yes. In 2008, 15-year-old Jennifer Sharpe from Dearborn, Michigan sold 17,328 boxes of cookies. This was a new record for her troop and possibly an all-time record. From 1978 to 1990, Elizabeth Brinton of Falls Church, VA, sold a total of more than 100,000 boxes of cookies. Elizabeth sold 11,200 boxes of cookies in 1985 and 18,000 boxes in a later year.
The only way to know for sure that you are buying fresh cookies is to buy them directly from a Girl Scout or from the local Girl Scout council. Because the cookies are only baked for the yearly sale and are not going to be sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold, they do not mark the boxes with a date or a code. GSUSA cautions against buying cookies online because there is no way to know how fresh those cookies are.
In 2010, a "bundle" of Girl Scout cookies contained three boxes, each box cost $4.00, so the bundle cost $12.00.

If there are Girl Guide cookies made in Pakistan, it is probably because the Pakistan Girl Guides Association sells cookies. Girl Scout cookies sold in the USA are made in the USA, in Kentucky for Little Brownie Bakers and in Iowa for ABC Cookie Bakers. Some Girl Scout troops ask customers to purchase boxes of Girl Scout cookies which are sent to US Armed Forces personnel all around the world, so US Girl Scout cookies may have been seen in Pakistan because they were sent there as a gift or sold there by USA Girl Scouts Overseas.
