Based upon a true story, The Hug Store idea was born during a family visit to Michigan that Shana and Rick took one Thanksgiving. When they arrived at Rick’s parents’ home, Grandpa (Rick’s Dad) asked Shana for a hug since he hadn't seen her in several months and missed her. Shana told Grandpa that she "was all out of hugs and needed to go to the store to get some more!"
