Gen Z is fueling a holiday craze for a $15 CVS Snoopy plush toy. TikTok users are documenting their quest for the toy, offering tips and maintaining the Peanuts hype. CVS employees on Reddit are also lamenting customer inquiries, while eBay is seeing resellers pricing the toy at double or triple the original cost. Some are even successfully purchasing and assisting others in obtaining the sought-after Snoopy. Despite Peanuts’ vintage origins, the cartoon dog is clearly resonating with Gen Z. Experts suggest a resurgence in Snoopy’s appeal may stem from his childlike demeanor, nostalgic allure, and the potential recognition of the Peanuts characters’ existentialist subtext by a generation who shares the same humor.
