I'm kind of confused why the girl scout cookie thing was worth investigating. If the prices went up a lot, does there need to be a better explanation than "people were willing to pay the increased prices?"

I thought it was an interesting question, and I'd been involved in Girl Scouts enough (going on campouts, selling boxes with my sisters) that I had a personal interest as well.
