My 9-year old daughter and I were also caught by this silly rule from the Girl Scouts. I setup a web page that accepts pre-order quantities using Google Sites and Google Docs. It was all free and very easy to do and I worked on it with my daughter so she'd learn some of this stuff (which is part of the goal for the girls in selling cookies... to become entrepreneurial). I also offered it to the parents of other girls in her troop and 3 of them thought it was a great idea. The only "personal" information we had on the page was my daughter's first name, a picture of her, and a line that stated the neighborhood we live in... those are all things that would be revealed by her going door-to-door in our neighborhood anyways. Our "advertising" for the website was done via flyers that we dropped off only at the houses we'd otherwise be knocking on the door of. We still did some door-knocking, but its so cold where we live that I really didn't want my daughter catching a cold while selling cookies door-to-door for hours on end, so going online just made so much sense. I really hope the Girl Scout Council gets with the times and sets down some simple rules that the girls can follow and be able to go online.
