Stuff-N-Hug is a store in the Springfield Mall. The store sells stuffed animals that buyers themselves determine the look of, and then create.
[edit] History
It was Maggie who decided that the family would visit the shop after they had come out of the store Itchy & Scratchy's. When they walked in, Eric was going to show them a video, but there was an error and the video wouldn't play. Ralph was also there to buy a teddy bear but the bear exploded when he filled it with too much cotton. Lisa originally wanted to have a poodle, but Marge did not like it, because "the dog might get ideas," so she bought a dolphin, Betsy. The vendor refused to sell her "male" clothing for a female dolphin but Lisa cheated her by making her believe it was a boy dolphin. Bart then pranked Homer by recording taunting messages on several stuffed hippos that was there, causing Homer to get angry and rip all the hippos to shreds.
[edit] Behind the Laughter
The store is a parody of the Build-A-Bear Workshop chain, a similar kind of store where customers choose and stuff their own animals, and then pick out clothing and accessories for them.
