They had jolly well better be giving a fat donation to the GSA as they 
claim.  Admittedly the Girl Scouts don't get a lot per box, maybe a 
quarter per box actually goes to the troop, but competing with little 
children is a PR hit that even Wal-Mart cannot afford.

On the other hand... I wonder if they are any good?  :-)
