Parents let their kids carry these around while shopping, and then they just put them back before checking out. My MIL said she wanted to buy some for the grandkids but decided not to because she thinks they’re all dirty from that. I think that's the excuse she uses instead of how expensive they are.

Yikes. Not a fan of stuffed animals to begin with, they're dust collectors. That doesn't look like something you could wash, either. Just takes up a ton of room.
