"We did plenty of haggling," the mum explained.

"The most expensive thing was the 'Nike' trainers for £30, everything else was under."

The mum bagged everything in Bodrum, while on holiday, and even had to buy a faux 'Louis Vuitton' bag to put everything in to take back home – which would've set her hack £1,510 if she bought the real deal.

After sharing the haul on TikTok other jet setters were excited to get their hands on some similar bargains.

One said: "I cannot wait to go! Those Dior trainers though."

And a second commented: "I'm heading to Gumbet in two weeks and can't wait."

But not everyone loved the bargains and someone else slammed: "These are the worst fakes, I feel bad."

Buying fakes: The Risks

It might be tempting to buy bargain knock offs while on holiday since they’re often a lot cheaper than the real deal. But in some countries, buying counterfeit goods is illegal and it could mean huge fines or even jail time.

  • Counterfeiting is a crime
  • The industry often exploits labour and fuels organised crime.
  • Despite being illegal, in some factories in Turkey children are employed to make the counterfeit goods, Wiser Market reports.
  • Although fakes are sometimes associated with poor quality this isn't always the case.
  • According to the European Consumer Centre (ECC), different countries in Europe have different laws when it comes to carrying counterfeit souvenirs.
