Amanda Hope dreads to think how much she has spent on her collection of Jellycat soft toys but reckons it's more than £3,000.
"They are just so cute and cuddly," the 36-year-old software specialist from Surrey says. "There is something so irresistible about their happy little faces!"
Amanda is one of a rising number of adults buying toys for themselves.
And it's not just Jellycats, it's also the likes of Lego plastic bricks and Sonny Angels dolls filling up TikTok feeds as people post videos of their latest purchases. These toys don't necessarily come cheap though. Jellycats range in price from £11 to over £700, while Lego gift sets for adults can cost as much as £730.
