Cheap TatOneEyedMonster remindes us about the crap you can buy in pound shops: "Batteries that lasted about an hour and then died. A screwdriver with a loose handle so I couldn't turn the damn screw, and a tape measure which wasn't at all accurate."
Similarly, my neighbour bought a lawnmower from Argos that was so cheap the wheels didn't go round, it sort of skidded over the grass whilst gently back-combing it.
What's the cheapest, most useless crap you've bought?

Dontbuy the cheapest taps for a bath or sink you can find. They will be shit. Theres a reason proper ones cost £100+.
I know this because (being the slum landlord that I am) the last set sheared off all the little prongs on the very first turn after fitting. Shiny little fuckers.

Screwfix......purveyors of the cheapest tat possible. Screws that don't. Saws that won't. Assorted shit that always, always refuses to work.
No wonder B&Q make so much money if this is their competition.
