Fashionistas find the ultimate strappy sandals in Primark that look just like designer pair for £122 less
But one particular area of the shop that is a treasure trove for dupes is its shoe stands, which currently hold a £6 imitation of a viral £128 sandal.
Reformation's pricey Ludo Toe Ring Strappy Flat Sandal recently went viral on TikTok for its trendy silhouette and array of colours.
But at £128 a pop, it's not an affordable design for most Brits.
That's where Primark steps in.
The fast fashion giant's £6 Flat Strappy Sandals might only come in two colours compared to Reformation's seven, but the design is uncanny.
A blurb on the open toe shoes reads: 'Make every step as stylish as the next with these must-have strappy mule sandals.
'A staple in your new season shoe collection, they feature a flat sole that's perfect for everyday comfort and stylish loop design to the toe.
'The strappy style is ideal for sun-splashed summer days, while the faux leather is versatile and practical.
'Wear them on repeat and look to a season of chic moments!'
The colours available are chocolate brown and white.
They are available in sizes 3 through to 8, and already stocked in Primark stores across the country.
Primark's success in the dupe game is no accident.
Its fast fashion model allows the retailer to swiftly spot trending designs - often worn by celebs or made viral by social media - and recreate them.
Whether it's a £3 version of a £40 designer lip gloss or a coat that looks suspiciously similar to one seen on the runway, Primark always comes in clutch with its dupes.
In fact, the latest dupe added to its beauty arsenal is the PS... Lip And Cheek Jelly Tint.
The inspiration for the new launch is Milk Makeup's £22 Cooling Water Jelly Tint.

Barbers across the UK are being asked to recreate the 'Ibiza Final Boss haircut'
Barbers across the UK are being asked to recreate the 'Ibiza Final Boss haircut' Jack Kay, 26, has become an internet sensation after a video of him dancing in a vest and sunglasses with the distinctive chinstrap beard and high skin fade haircut went viral "The perfect Final Boss is a high skin fade with the top slicked to the side. But it's mainly the beard that makes it." The "Ibiza Final Boss" trend is currently taking the UK by storm, all thanks to a video of Geordie Jack Kay dancing in Ibiza that went viral on social media. Donning a gold chain, sunglasses and a distinctive hairstyle, the footage has led to a surge in demand for the unique look at barbershops across the country. Barber Ben McCabe, 21, who works at Razortrim in Erdington, Birmingham, reveals that the 26 year old's hairstyle has sparked a new trend. He told The Mirror that he's been swamped with bookings for the 'Final Boss' cut, averaging two per day. "Everyone is asking for it!" he discloses, adding that the haircut costs £28 at Razortrim. This follows reports that Jack Kay, the 'Ibiza Final Boss', could earn a six-figure sum from sponsorship deals.

"When I first saw it, I thought it hilarious - we were all sending it around. It looks like he's stuck it on!". "But then, on my very first day back at work, people were asking for it and showing me the video," he adds, reports the Mirror. He continues: "Everyone has their own style; some people might find it attractive, some not. A lot have taken inspiration from it. The accessories all help - the vest, the chain, the tattoos, the man bag, it's a vibe. I wouldn't get it myself - I'm vanilla, but people love it. For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter Barber Ben McCabe giving Ollie Stokes, 17 the Ibiza final boss at Razortrim, Birmingham "It's Ibiza season and this is the style - whether it wears off by winter who knows, or whether it will come back next summer. But it's definitely hot now." Apprentice barber Ollie Stokes, 17, was amongst those who adored the appearance and requested Ben give him the haircut in a clip that has garnered nearly a million views since being uploaded to TikTok. However, Ollie opted to style the cut somewhat more modestly. Ollie Stokes at Razortrim, Birmingham (Image: TikTok) "After I got the cut, I put it on my Snapchat, and my friends were creasing up. But I think I'd save it for when I go to Ibiza." Regarding the challenge of perfecting the Ibiza bob - arguably the most notorious since Jennifer Aniston's Rachel style in Friends - Ben reveals it's actually quite straightforward to achieve. A man known online as Jack Kay has gained online notoriety because of his impressive dance floor moves in Ibiza combined with a distinctive 'friar tuck'-like haircut (Image: TikTok) "It's pretty similar to just a normal skin fade. It's longer on top. There's a bit less of a blend. You got more of a Peaky Blinders style going on," he explains. "The perfect Final Boss is a high skin fade with the top slicked to the side. But it's mainly the beard that makes it." And it's not just any facial hair, he added: "It's that chin strap that Jack has in his video. It makes the jawline look sharp." Article continues below

Netflix users can't believe 'raunchy' new show is allowed on the streaming platform
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Netflix subscribers have been binge-watching a new series that's so "raunchy" users can't believe it's available on the streaming platform. Film enthusiast Lexy Puhlick, who goes by on social media, has encouraged viewers to watch it after confessing to viewing five episodes in one sitting. In her TikTok video, she said: "Everyone needs to stop what they're doing and watch the new show on Netflix called The Waterfront. I was able to bed rot all day today and I started the series in the morning and now I'm on episode five. To be honest, I don't want the show to be over. "There's only eight episodes so I'm going to force myself to stop watching it now so I don't sit and binge watch it for the entire day." The series, which carries a 15 rating, follows a "prominent North Carolina fishing family wades into treacherous waters to keep their crumbling business empire afloat.", reports the Mirror. Developed by Kevin Williamson, it features Holt McCallany, Melissa Benoist and Jake Weary - and boasts a 7 star rating from 142 reviews on IMDb. She added: "The show is so good - the actors, the actresses, the storyline. Honestly, the love scenes, they're hot. Actually, I'm a little bit shocked that Netflix allowed the type of scenes that they did." Responding to her post, one user said: "My husband and I just started it! We are addicted too." Another user added: "Agreed! Reminds me of Animal Kingdom and Ozarks." A third viewer commented: "I enjoyed it too! The only thing: I found the acting in the first episodes really bad, especially the son and this wife. But I kept on watching and started to enjoy. Loved the voices of the mom and dad and the soundtrack." One IMDb critic remarked: "A solid series that's both entertaining and full of telenovela drama. "There are a few cheesy main actors and a ridiculous scene every now and then, but a good show nonetheless. That 70's show actor is one of the bad guys, named Grady. "And while he's annoying in everything he does, his character actually fits in this particular show. "Does that make him a good actor all of a sudden? No, it just means his annoying character that he plays in everything he does, just fits this series. "Another main character, Cane, doesn't do too well here even though he's done a better job in other shows, like Animal Kingdom." Someone else noted: "Decent storyline. Some of the dialog is predictable and has me skipping ahead, though. The episode endings have been pretty good transitions between each. "I find a cadence of watching the last part of the episode, then the first part of the next episode, and kind of skipping through the middle. But that's just me. I'm still watching it though - it is enjoyable."

Three ingredient air fyer doughnuts that are on the plate in minutes
These little balls of sweetness are a great treat for the weekend and easy to make A Scots mum has shared a recipe for three ingredient air fryer doughnuts which take minutes to make and are a great treat for the whole family. The doughnut doughballs are made with flour, yoghurt and vanilla essence, items many will already have in the kitchen. Ailsa, from Inverness, who posts on TikTok under @familymealswithailsa first shared the recipe in 2023 when the simple treats video clocked up 2.4 million views on the social media platform. And this week she recreated the viral recipe once again for her 94.7 thousand followers. She said: "Let's recreate my most viral video doing the three ingredient viral doughnuts." The list of ingredients are 150g flour, 200g Greek yoghurt and vanilla essence. And that's all you need to make the doughy delicacies. Ailsa added: "The last time I did this video it hit 2.4 million." She goes on to combine the three ingredients in a large bowl before mixing them all together, with a little help from her daughter. As it begins to form a doughy consistency, she then advises to use your hands to 'bring it all together'. After sprinkling flour on her work surface, Ailsa continues to knead the dough. She said: "Then we are going to put it into little balls". She then forms the dough into small dough ball shapes and adds: "They're now going to go into the air fryer at 180C for six to eight minutes." While the doughnuts are cooking she said: "While they're in the air fryer, in a bowl I'm going to mix together some sugar and cinnamon. And in the other bowl we are going to melt off some butter." Once removing the dough balls from the air fryer, she then dips them into the butter before rolling them in the sugar and cinnamon mix. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The final step is to melt some chocolate in a mug for dipping. Ailsa said: "And there we have it, our three ingredient air fryer doughnuts." She did however concede that they have a few more than three ingredients, saying: "Although they're not really three ingredient anymore because there's the butter, the sugar and the cinnamon so I would really say that that was six." After a positive taste test from her daughter and husband she added: "Well, the whole gang approves so give it a try." Followers agreed. One said: "Those look delicious," to which Ailsa replied: "So good!!". Another added: "Well done guys, they look amazing." One asked about using zero per cent fat Greek yoghurt to which Ailsa replied: "That's what I used," and another asked what type of flour to use. Ailsa said: "Just any self raising flour." And she told another fan to use the air fryer setting on the gadget instead of bake setting.
