Comments left:	I sold cookies in the 70's and my daughter is selling cookies now. I miss the Scot Teas, so much different than shortbread/trefoils. I've done some research; the cookies then and now are all just about the same weight, very, very close. The price however... I think they were about 90 cents or so back then. Girls are still expected to do the work. Even if mom or dad brings the flyer into work, the girl is supposed to be involved either by going in with where possible or writing a note on the order sheet when not. My daughter works very hard and last year she sold 2845 boxes and she sold every one of those (and more, she was helping out a couple other girls too). No selling at workplaces. It's such a great experience, she's learned so much, not just about cookies but about money and learning how to read people, interpersonal skills, what works to sell, how to take "no". It's all good, well, except when it's 20 below...
