In a recent video, the mum showed off the "perfect for holiday" summer buys she picked up in the supermarket this week.
Tesco's in-house fashion label, F&F, is renowned for its stylish buys at affordable prices.
But Clubcard users can save an extra 25% on items if they purchase them before Sunday, June 29.
Lara, a size 14, had only nipped to the supermarket to grab bin bags and coffee when she stumbled across the promotional signs in the F&F aisles.
"Why did no one tell me there was 25% off?" she cried.
"Obviously that roped me in, and there was so much [new things]. I didn't think there would be, I felt like I was only just there last week.
"They had loads of sizes as well. So Monday mornings are a good time to go to Tesco guys."
First up, she bagged a £25 black and white polka dot satin midi dress which she described as "just beautiful".
She also found a gold sheer metallic dress for £19.50 that she insists is so pretty you'll want to wear it by the pool and at night time too.
She gushed: "How beautiful is that? Oh my god. That on holiday, some chunky jewellery.
Tesco fans are set to love the latest items in stores for 25 per cent off when you use clubcard
"It's got this wee slip dress inside which is perfect so it's not see-through. So you could probably wear it at night as well. Obsessed. The colour is just everything.
"Guys it's a win win any time that's on. It's just a bargain."
Next, the Scots fashionista picked up a £22.50 cream crochet mini dress that she said would be the perfect day-to-night outfit if you "get a wee slip dress or Skims underneath".
Lara styled it with a gold belt to cinch in the waist, and sized up to a large for a comfy look.
But it was two summery co-ords that she was most impressed with.
She bagged a £25 white maxi skirt with a black floral pattern, sizing down to a size 12, and matching bandeau crop top for £14.

She hailed the outfit as "the perfect co-ord for your holiday", adding: "How stunning is this? I genuinely love it.
"It's not anything I would ever wear, especially the long skirt. But I am obsessed. The print, the fit, the black and white. Oh my god, I want to scream.
"How beautiful is that print? Oh my goodness. Love it. Love, love, love.
"And it's got this stretchy material at the back."
She also tracked down a pretty sage green high-waisted mini skirt and tie-front waistcoat, priced at £22.50 each.
"Look at the colours of that. That sage green, all embroidered", she gushed.
"This is going to be the new viral co-ord 100 per cent. It's stunning. And it's really good quality, it's lined as well.
"This is beautiful, I can 100 per cent guarantee this is going to sell out so quick."
Lara's haul should have set her back £151 in total, but she managed to get it for just £113.25, saving £37.75.
She said: "When you've got the 25% off it makes a good bit of difference."
And fashion fans were loving her gorgeous picks, with her video racking up 49,000 views.
One gushed: "Love the waistcoat co-ord set and the swimsuit cover up, you have styled so well. Running to Tesco."
"You look great in all of them", someone else added.
Meanwhile, a third wrote: "You just keep finding better outfits."

While you're in store, you may also want to keep an eye out for the £19.50 'chuck on' summer dress that is "gorgeous on" and comes in three colours.
Fashion fans are in a frenzy over the "prettiest" £35 Tesco dress too - it's perfect for weddings and comes in on-trend, classy colour.
Elsewhere, shoppers have fallen in love with Tu's Yellow Striped Tie Detail Midaxi Tea Dress, which is priced at £28.

Katie Price turns heads in bold bikini on Dubai beach after 'arrest' warning

Katie Price stunned passers-by as she donned a neon bikini while enjoying a beach break in Dubai, just days after fans urged her to be careful about offending locals with her outfit choices Katie Price once again turned heads as she strutted through the surf in a barely-there neon bikini, while she enjoyed a beach break in Dubai. The former glamour model and reality star showed off her assets as she soaked up the sun, fresh from partying in Ibiza with Wayne Lineker. Mum-of-five Katie, 47, flaunted her surgically-enhanced body in the vibrant orange two-piece, showing off a multitude of tattoos and deep bronzed tan. Her black hair was slicked back as she walked through the shallow waters, having undergone countless procedures. ‌ Her striking look comes just weeks after she had her 17th breast augmentation, sparking fresh waves of debate over her decision to continually go under the knife for her looks. Although she's criticised by many for her surgeries and extreme weight loss, the Pricey remains defiant in her choices. ‌ Katie's recent outfit from her Dubai trip, a see-through mesh dress that showed off all her curves, caused fans to voice their concerns that she'd be arrested. One user commented on her Facebook upload: "I didn't realize in Dubai you could walk around like that I always thought Dubai had a strict clothes policy. I must have got that wrong !" Another was more blunt, fuming: "You'd be arrested for wearing that in dubai." A third added: "That outfit is totally disrespectful!!," while a fourth said: "She is a bit under dressed, respect the country your in." Although there are no laws for dress code, there are around respecting UAE culture. Any tourist who is deemed to be wearing inappropriate clothing is asked to agree not to do it again - if they do, legal action could then be taken. Katie has been candid about her cosmetic surgery, regularly discussing her procedures online, in interviews and on podcasts. Recently Katie revealed she has had one procedure that she regretted, despite the fact she's now on her fourth. ‌ The BBL is popular with celebrities including Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner, and it involves injecting fat into the buttocks to enhance their size and shape. The augmentation uses the patient's fat, harvested through liposuction. But Mucky Mansion star Katie admitted her botched Brazilian butt lift left her in severe pain. ‌ Speaking to Katherine Ryan on her What's My Age Again podcast, Katie admitted it was her biggest surgery regret. When asked the question, she replied: "The bum," before adding, "I tried that BBL abroad where they take your own fat and put it in your bum. It was so painful. And it just did not look right on me." In June, Katie reflected on the heartbreaking emotional forces behind her ever-changing appearance and obsession with her looks. In a recent TikTok live, Katie candidly admitted she feels inadequate. ‌ A fan asked her: "Why do you keep getting surgery?" To which Katie replied: "That is a very good question, so obviously I've had lot of therapy because I've had trauma in my life. "I think surgery stems from something from when I was younger, and me feeling I'm not validated or good enough. It must have started form there. But to be honest, I quite like having the surgery it makes me look fresh. "I'm 47 in May, and when I look at people I went to school with, I think they look haggard, you can grow old gracefully, but I don't want to grow old gracefully. If there's these procedures out there to be done I will take advantage of them and at least I'm being honest."
