Girl Scout cookie arrival, 1958

Good news and bad news: Girl Scout Cookies just became more easily available in 4 of the 5 boroughs! The Girl Scout Council of Greater New York tells us that they've opened up Cookie Cupboards which will be in business through May 6th. Forget about the bake sales, they'll be selling all the classics: Trefoils, Samoas, Thin Mints, Tagalongs, and Dosidos; as well as the newbies: Ducle de Leche, Lemon Chalet Cremes, and Thank U Berry Much. (Whatever happened to those magical low-cal cookies?)

Boxes are $3.50 a pop, and they'll be accepting cash, money orders and personal checks. Locations and hours can be found after the jump. And here's a little history for you: Did you know the Girl Scouts have been selling cookies for 93 of their 98 years? Except for during World War II, when they sold calendars instead due to shortages of flour, sugar, and butter.
