Let's be honest, we Brits love a bargain, and when it comes to clothes shopping, there are few places that capture the magic of reasonable prices quite like Primark.
While we might take the shop's low prices for granted sometimes, people who come on holiday to the UK and have never been to a Primark store before just can't get their heads around the mega deals we see every day.
One woman, from the US, recently shared a video to TikTok in which she detailed her first experience with a Primark store while on holiday in London, and said she was blown away by the cheap prices and decent quality of the items on offer.
Hope, who posts under the username @hopeannwilliams, said the prices in Primark were "insane", and joked that she would never need to shop anywhere else if she had access to the clothes shop at home, because it "does everything".
She even managed to find a dupe for the pair of sunglasses she had brought with her, which cost her $30 (£24) back in the US, but were just £3.50 - the equivalent of around $4 - in Primark.

She said: "I'm currently in London and I obviously had to stop at the famous Primark. The prices are insane, let me just show you. There are literally just endless amounts of clothes, and the pricing is insane.
"The best thing about Primark is they do everything. These sunglasses that I'm bringing with me were around $30, they have the same ones right here for £3.50.
"A lot of the stuff reminds me of Pretty Little Thing but cheaper and better quality."
Brits flocked to the comments section of Hope's video, with many praising Primark as the "greatest store ever".
One person wrote: "Primark accessories last forever! Greatest store ever!"
As another added: "Nails at Primark are fab."
Meanwhile, another American tourist recently left Brits in stitches after they sampled Greggs for the very first time - and described it as "f***ing lovely".
David Turek, 26, filmed himself eating several Greggs products including the famous sausage roll, and at one point exclaimed: "Holy s***!, 9.8 out of 10, that's f***ing lovely."
David, who is originally from Chesapeake, Virginia, USA, recorded videos of himself also trying a bacon butty, fish and chips, and crumpets, to the delight of British people online.
Many reacted to his videos said they wish they could re-live the moment they tried these dishes for the first time.
