Yes that's the one @rav3n
I've had a hard afternoon, sitting on the couch with my plushie at the moment.
I went into Aldi yesterday and they have none of the weighted plushies or fidget toys left. Goes to show how popular they are. Maybe they might bring out more often.

@Snowie the pink dino was the other one i wanted!! omg they sell out so fast, fingers crossed they stock up soon. weighted items have definitely gotten more popular hey. i've been seeing ads for some weighted hoodies with build in fidget toys (like stress balls) too but they're from the US so extra pricey.
sorry to hear your afternoon’s been hard - i’m glad you’ve got your plushie with you though. that kind of comfort can make a even a lil difference. hoping the rest of your evening goes okay 💜

@rav3n I actually have a hoodie with fidget toys in the cuffs of the jumper. When I wear it I just squeeze the cuffs and the toys are there. It is sooo good. I think I paid a fair bit for it, but it was well worth it. Really good when I have a psych session!!
I know there are quite a few brands out there. I will try and find out where I brought it from.

omg this one looks amazing, thank you so much for the link!! @Snowie i've been wanting one for when i go to appointments too, and for when i get groceries. these look perfect for fidgeting in a subtle way (and the brand you sent is a lil cheaper than the one i looked at, yay!!)
yesterday
Been wearing mine today @rav3n
Did help when I had to go to the supermarket this morning.
