In the clip, Laura filmed the extension of her Asda food store, which had piles of cereal on the TV and meat covering the entire sofa.

Another glimpse of the scene saw chips and pasta take up another sofa while the floor was covered in huge soda bottles and vegetables.

She even packed a tower of margarine and hundreds of eggs to keep her family well fed.

The mother of five revealed that the food would last around a month, with a few refills of fresh food throughout.

Viewers of the video were stunned by the scene, but they were also surprised by how she paid for the loot.

In the post’s captions, she revealed that she used financial brand Klarna to pay the amount which cost around £10.50.

Instead of paying the large sum upfront, she entrusted Klarna with paying her £350 a month for the next three months.

People were perplexed by the amount of food the mother received and wondered where she would put it.

Laura revealed that she had two refrigerators and two freezers to store her food and ensure it was well preserved.

The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @the.scottish.york with more than 1 million views and 31 thousand likes.

People were quick to embrace the comments and share their thoughts.

One person wrote: “Having Klarna in your food store is shocking.”

Another commented: “Genuine question, if you’re paying £350 on Klarna, why not just make one monthly purchase and not go into debt?

“This shop is my monthly shop. It used to cost £350. It’s gone up to over £1,050 in the last two years for the same things! I’d love to go to the shop and buy it, but I can’t,” the mother replied.

What is Klarna and is it safe?

Klarna is an app you can use to make payment-free purchases at online retailers – you pay for the goods later.

Its products are also offered in the checkouts of hundreds of thousands of online retailers.

Previously, customers could only choose to pay through Klarna with certain retailers it partnered with.

But now, the service is available at all online retailers – regardless of whether they have a partnership with the store.

Customers can use their shopping app to spread the cost of a purchase over approximately two months as payments are completed after 60 days.

Your item will be shipped to you immediately and an email will be sent to you indicating when payment is due.

You will have 30 days (depending on the store) to decide if you want to keep the item before you are required to pay.

Customers can repay before the due date and automate payments so they are paid automatically on the due date.

Klarna also offers a “Pay Now” service where customers can pay immediately and in full.

The advantage of the service is that you can buy things online and decide whether you want to keep them or not before you buy them.

There is also the option of spreading payments over several months, or even years, known as financing.

But since these payments come with interest charges, they are regulated.

Unlike some credit cards, Klarna doesn’t charge interest or fees in the period between purchasing your products and paying, but may hit you with late charges for missed payments.

The company also said bills are passed on to debt collection agencies if they are not paid after several months.

“I bet it took a long time to save,” wrote a third.

Meanwhile, a fourth said: “We are a family of 6 and have not overcome this much in a month.”

“Is there anything left in the store?” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “Where do you put all this.”
