Hopefully they let the girls sell these along with the cookies because I always buy to support them and I would prefer silver to being even fatter than I am :)

but the real question is... "Are they made from real Girl Scouts?"

Brick and mortar shop: buy, sell, and trade anything precious- coins, bullion, scrap, jewelry, gems, etc.

HA

Made me laugh almost as much as the 50 meets eagle experiment that you've sponsored ;)

Too funny.

I knew it was only a matter of time before food would replace currency. Now we can trade cookies like the good old days. I think I traded cookies in grade school, but I've been hogging them ever since.

Could be a great sales gimmick. Buy 50 boxes of cookies get a free silver dollar. Bet they would sell out in one day.
