Cookie Anxiety

I'm having anxiety. We seem to have in our troop's hot little hands a billion (609 boxes) more cookies than we have the ability to sell. I have no idea how this came about. I've been wracking my brain since I found out and I just can't come up with why we still have 156 boxes of Samoas to sell. I may be the proud owner of 150 boxes in the next few days if Saturday's (and apparently another one on Sunday) site sale doesn't do well. I am exceedingly concerned. At the bare minimum to break even without giving our troop any money for the cookies, we have to sell 129 boxes this weekend. The first weekend we did that well (actually just under 200 boxes), but all other days not so hot. Pardon me while I freak out a bit. Anyone want to buy a bunch of Girl Scout Cookies?

Edit: It has now been suggested to me by 2 of my coworkers that despite rules that say I can't do this, I should go and hang out in front of the lesbian bar. Fluff my hair a bit. Wear a good shirt and sell my little heart out. Lesbians support Girl Scouts, right? Although gay men are more extravagent with their money. Maybe I should try there... They want to be Girl Scouts...

I don't eat cookies... or sugar really. But I'll buy a couple - in one of my extravagant expenditures :P

You should definitely fluff your hair, wear a lovely pair of tan corduroy pants, brown shoes, snug white polo shirt, and flaunt your wares [wears? :P] at the bar!

We all have to do what we can to sell our cookies at some point in life.
