Reps for sharing, thank you.

I'm sure they're to die for ..... but I'm afraid these will arrive as dust and crumbs 😟

Or, in my case... melted from the desert heat.

Wife received these as a Mother's Day present this past weekend. They arrived in great shape, even through a hot TX day.

Hmm. Zero rep person propping up a deal from Someone that had zero reps before for a questionable 'deal'.

I rarely comment, just thought I'd add my $0.02 for someone else. I can understand paranoia on A/V and electronics deals, but.. cookies?

I also have no idea what Insomnia normally charges, just vouching for the shipping.

For whatever it's worth I got 24 of these recently and they were in great shape and really good. They came from a shop about 200 miles away instead of the closest one which is about 30, not sure why. But still just took a day to get. I am not sure how they deal with really hot weather but I haven't seen any complaints about it, maybe because they are usually made local to you.

Umm. Yea.
Some of us watched the SD corporate takeover happen.
Difference between paranoia an knowing how SD works an has "evolved".
No paranoia at all in thinking 50 cookies for $50 is laughable. Thats the only reason I clicked on it. Cause it sounds so d@m stupid 🤣
Maybe that's why it's so expensive tho? Super high quality packaging?

Not saying whether or not they are worth it, but as an Insomnia cookies it's a pretty good deal. They are a New York/east coast chain and individual cookies there are $3-4 apiece. So 50 for 50 individually wrapped is a good deal.
Of course if i ordered them i'd OD from a sugar high or have a heart attack because there's no way i'm eating just one cookie, they wouldn't last a weekend.

I just happened to have received a box of these recently. The cookies are pretty good for what they are. Most corporate cookie/sweet boxes I've received tend to be overly sweet and taste like preservatives, but these had neither issue. $50 plus shipping for 50 of them is not that bad of a deal if you are giving these as a gift and take a look at the costs of alternative food gifts like Cookies by Design, Mrs. Fields, Great American Cookies, etc..

Also these make a much more thoughtful gift than sending someone a package of Oreos. I don't think this deal is intended for people looking to eat these themselves. If you want something for yourself you can bake cookies at a fraction of the price or get some from a local bakery.
