Thieves steal more than $19,000 worth of Thin Mints

Guess they really really liked thin mints!

$19,000 in Girl Scout cookies stolen in SC

SPARTANBURG, S.C. —

Authorities say someone stole nearly $19,000 worth of Girl Scout cookies from a warehouse in Spartanburg.

Investigators said more than 5,000 boxes of Thin Mints and Shortbread cookies were taken sometime this week from Carey Moving and Storage where they were being kept before they were to be sold at cookie booths in 22 counties across the state.

Those cookies are so overpriced, so if they are quoting retail prices.....well, that isn't the real world.

I wish I could find the person who has those cookies now.....I love thin mints, and would buy a couple cases at a discount.
