I haven't checked in about a year, have the Pokémon Fit plushies gone up from 11 dollars each? (Some of them were about 13 or so.)
Some of them are approaching 20. But they finally restocked mudkip, so like a sore loser I'm going to make this worthwile purchase.
 
My husband just got me this really cute realistic goat plushie, I named him Maciek. He's a pygmy goat.

Not plushies, but I have a bunch of troll dolls too, including two really nice large vintage Norfin trolls, they're so cute, I love trolls.
 
My dream investment.

I didn't know they had a pokemon fit for every pokemon in the series. Think I'll get a Pidgey and Growlithe.
 
I took one of my shop's damaged plushies home thinking I could sew a square of wildly different colored fabric on, imagining someone would go nuts for a customized ass-patch Snorlax. Unfortunatly he looks very comfy on my bed and so I'm not sure he'll be making it back to the store.

The ass-rip in question:

We have several other pushies and character backpacks that arrived damaged, but those all ripped at the seams so I think those could be sewn back up in a more discreet way. I'm not a great hand-sewer but my mom is God-tier so she'll know the best way to go about it.
 
Most of my plushies are actually in my office; I’ve gotten a lot of them as gifts. But I did treat myself a few months back:

She’s really good.

I have the urge to go to Build-A-Bear. I demand to go to Build-A-Bear. I have like four of them from over the years but I miss the nostalgia of being a good boy and getting a Build-A-Bear as a present.
 
What the fuck, where do you get an axolotl in jammies?
Build a Bear! They also have a Christmas and Valentine’s Day version in stock right now. (There was a green one, too, but it’s out of stock right now.) BAB is expensive, but the plushies are large and nice quality and you can order online if you’re like an adult and ashamed to actually go into the store. They send free shipping codes to your email if you sign up for their mailing list, too.
 
Build a bear has high quality pokemon plushies. I've been considering dropping in and making a fool of myself by acquiring a mudkip.
 
Used to own a collection of plushies of Super Mario & Sonic characters when I was little; when we moved they got put in a woodstore in a couple black bags and unfortunately the rats & mice ate & shat over them, so they have pretty much all since gone.

Last year when I went to the zoo, I picked up this guy below, one of Jellycat's new releases of the time, and he's been with me ever since. The price is admittedly very harsh (£60) but he's worth it to me, one of the few plushies that I genuinely enjoy hugging. I've named him Ken Allen Jr. and he keeps watch of my living room.

All the plushies that aren't in storage. And yes that is an E;R plushie. Probably the only time I'll ever by merch from an e-celeb lmaoo

I patched up that Snorlax plushie and despite his cuteness brought him back to the shop. I'm very glad I did because a kid went absolutly BANANAS over it. He loved that it was Snorlax, the loved that it was patched, his mom loved that I gave her a 10% discount.

The repair that didn't make it back to the shop was a grey Kuromi plush backpack, which had three seam rips and some weird crud on her from the Chinese factory. Very much fixable and washable but she was too goddamn cute and now she lives on my bed. The straps are removable and I use the pocket to keep a lavender sachet in. (Alternatively you could go the Kelly Lenza route and use her to stash bedtime fried chicken.) Her feet also make her a good neck pillow.
