Have you ever fought with a manager or anyone else with a food related matter? This happened today


Coming out of grocery store and there was a girl scout cookie selling table that they setup by the exit. Whatever happened to them selling door to door?
They ask me if I want to buy a box and I ask how much...they replied $5/box. Now I remember back in the day it was like $2/box.

Tell them no thanks. They try to say it is for a good cause etc and try to argue with me.
Now I am mad. I tell them why would I spend $5 on a small box of their dog biscuit trash when I can get a large tray of freshly baked, soft delicious cookies from costco for 50 cents more.

The lady tries to talk over me and I tell her this is a business transaction. I am a potential customer, I am not your friend and this is a bad business deal and I walked off.

oh man, not related but reminiscient of something that happened to me when I was in fifth grade. I was selling candy for a school trip and managed to get my dance teacher to buy one. she didn't like it and made me refund her the dollar. who does that to a child lmao

this lady was a huge bitch and i was subjected to her since i was babby until high school so i might have grown into athletic babe, but ultimately im still a neet that cries when people look at me and gets most of my socialization from 4chan

maybe because you want to support an organization that is more than simply a cookie making factory whose only goal is to sell the cheapest cookies

I recently bought some popcorn from the boy scouts for like $20

I kind of loathe that they block your path in front of grocery stores now, too. I'm already not going to buy any cookies. Sometimes I sit in my car and try to time going in when other people are going in so I can sneak by without getting guilt tripped by little girls.

This right here. I worked so hard trying to sell popcorn, and the damn girl scouts only had to sneeze and people would line up to get their candy. Our popcorn was fucking awesome, until they started changing it. It was amazing when I was little, then when I dropped out of the scouts due my scout leader being a prick they changed the provider and it started to suck.

Now the girl scouts are bitching because they do shit with their money and make the girls do crafts instead of the awesome camping trips, hikes, and winter survival camps we did when I was little.
