Well, our COVID-19 anniversary is coming up. Can you believe how far we’ve haven’t made it with NOT stopping the spread of the virus. Halloween was cancelled, Thanksgiving was cancelled, Christmas was cancelled and yes, every single person’s birthday was cancelled as well.

During it all you have probably spent more time shopping online or just window shopping as you would if you went to Metrotown. I can speak for myself when I say retail therapy shopping seems to be the most exciting thing, I have going for me right now. If you’re a normal person you know of tik-tok and the way this app has influenced the shopping habits of many users. One of those being the rise of Squishmallows.

For those who don’t know what a Squishmallow is, I doubt you don’t because it is fricking everywhere, but they’re these cute stuffed “animals” which come in various shapes and designs that are like the new Ferbies not really, but it’s got the hype.

These little things have driven people mad with trying to get the latest releases as they sell out fast once available in-store or online. I guess you can equate these little guys almost being like the top Jordan shoe release.

Now the Squishmallows are not just for kids (unlike Trixx) anyone at any age can enjoy them. So, if you don’t know what to get your significant other this Valentine’s, get them a Squishmallow.
