Girl Scout cookies

So I see the already overpriced Girl Scout cookies are giving less bang for the buck.

I believe the Girl Scouts of America is a great organization. I never joined because (a) I'm not a joiner, and (b) my parents couldn't afford it anyhow.

I would, however, be glad to donate something to the organization.

Here's what bothers me: Those overpriced cookies only give the troops about fifty cents per box sold.

Now folks, I'd rather those Girl Scouts would come to my door and ask for an outright donation. I really don't care for their cookies, and I'd gladly give the price they ask for a box of lousy cookies directly to the local troops.

Is that too much to ask? Couldn't we at least have that option?
