I had totally forgot that I had ordered them. We were in the kitchen and we had just finished eating dinner. We were cleaning off the table. A truck pulled up outside. I asked Steve who it was. He told me and the kids immediately shouted, "It's our Girl Scout cookies!!!" OH YEAH!!! I forgot about those. I was so excited. Now we had dessert. It was all I could do to pay the girl and then rip the grocery bag open to get my cookies. Before I even pulled the first box out of the bag I could tell something was wrong. The box was smaller than normal. I opened one side of the flap and could tell something was wrong. There weren't very many cookies in there. Then I pulled out the cellophane tube of all that is good in the world chocolate minty put a smile on your face delectably thin happiness. I held them in my hand and looked at them with a disgusted/confused look on my face. This is how I eat Thin Mints. Frozen. Pop one whole cookie in my mouth. Enjoy. First of all, if you haven't had them frozen, you are missing out. Try it and you will never eat another room temperature Thin Mint again. Second of all, they were the perfect popping size. Well NOT ANY MORE! What the HECK?@#! You don't mess with perfection people. Ya just don't.
I want my money back. Girl Scouts of America my booty.

Were they too big or too small?
Yes, they must be eaten frozen. I completely agree!
They are HUGE! I don't think the name "Thin" mints applies any more. What the heck are you doing awake at such an unreasonable hour?
How are you complaining that GS cookies are too big? Woman, just enjoy the heavenly goodness.
I agree with D- how is too big bad?
Just so you know it was really 2:50 a.m. my time, not 1:50 a.m. I was up working. I am currently working about 8 hours a day/every day and I can work uninterrupted from about 9p.m. - 3a.m. Than I work during the daylight hours in between diaper changes, reading books, and play time.
I'm looking forward to mine today...I love me some Girl Scout cookies.
Farrah- SLEEP!!!
You girls obviously don't understand the whole thin mint thing. I'm not even going to try to explain it. Where is Kristy. She knows what I'm talking about.
Farrah, when do you SLEEP???
They aren't bigger in circumference, they are thicker and I think they make them that way so they can put less cookies in a box. There were not very many cookies in there. I would love to know how many used to be in the box and how many there are now.
I get four hours of sleep a night. My body is used to it now
Ally, I just had a thin mint and they seem the same to me. Maybe they make them different there in Utah!
Farrah, you are going to have a breakdown. I hope you can try and avoid that.
I guess you have to be a true Thin Mint connoisseur to understand. It is a very slight change, but they have changed. I have eaten enough thin mints in my life to know. Once again, where is Kristy when you need her?
D, Remember Kristys breakdowns?
Kristy is probably busy packing! Tomorrow is the big day!
Zac was looking for something to eat after school today. He opened the freezer and said, "Mom, can I have a thin mint? Or should I say a THICK mint. They aren't exactly THIN anymore."
