How many cookies???

I would add a couple to be safe; I know I would be stuffing some in my pockets for later!

The best cookie is the Tagalong. This is scientific fact and anyone who does not acknowledge this truth needs Jesus.

I'd do 4-5 cookies pp if you can budget that. BTW, very cool idea.

And obviously Thin Mints and Peanut Butter Patties are the best lol

Yes! Tag-A-Longs for the win!

Tagalongs. Tagalongs all day!!

As for amount of cookies... Google says 3-6 per person!

Awesome idea. They freeze well.

Elizabeth... You with your "Peanut Butter Patties" lol where do you live? I knew tagalongs had a different name in other parts of the county, I just never met anyone who didn't call them tagalongs lol

Tagalongs!!! I also like Samoas. I like Thin Mints if they come from the freezer.

I say 5-6 per person.. Honestly, I would go for the cookies and smores over the cake.

ETA: typo

Peanut butter patties (aka tagalongs) are also my favorite. I would estimate a little higher per person (4 or 5) since Girl Scout cookies are so good and addicting. This also allows for some extras for the bonfire.

Eta: I'm from outside Boston originally, but now live in Brooklyn. When I was a Girl Scout as a kid in the Boston area, they were called peanut butter patties.

Girl Scout cookies is such a great idea! They are very addicting, I can eat a half a box in one sitting! So to me 3 per person doesn't sound like a lot. But if you have lots of other options for desserts it might be ok.

Btw thin mints all the way!!

I feel so vindicated with all these Tagalong lovers. FH hates them and we had a huge fight over it one time lol

Lol @jerseyjen, I'm in Philadelphia

Such an amazing idea. I'd say 5/pp because people LOVE Girls Scout cookies!

Samoas and thin mints. I can usually only eat 2-3 samoas before I'm over it, but I don't hate myself until at least a full sleeve of thin mints has been consumed. So. Yeah.

Ok, gonna add a few more boxes and increase the percentage of PB patties (also my fave). Thanks ladies! My troop is very excited for my giant order this year. We're also giving the bridal party and vendors each a box of Thanks a Lots. For those who have the other bakery in your area, they are super yummy shortbread type cookies with chocolate on one side, and they each say thank you in a different language.

Mmmmmm....cookies!

Ps, my troop is taking orders if there are any RI/MA brides out there in need of a cookie fix...$4/box! ;-)

Ahh! The Thanks-A-Lots are yummy! I only had them when I was student teaching in PA. The girls in my class now don't sell those.

No where near as yummy as tagalongs lol but definitely delicious.

I am obsessed with this idea.

ETA: thin mints, tagalong, and lemonades!

THIN MINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTS!

I don't even want to think about how many I would have needed for 175 people! My brothers and other family (husband and stepson included) don't count cookies, they eat the entire roll!! Cool idea, make sure those thin mints are frozen! nom nom nom

Thin mints all the way!!! And any person on a good day can down a sleeve of those without even thinking. I told my FH about the 3 cookie per person and he chuckled...he said you better get more than that.
