Cheap Tat
OneEyedMonster 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?

lifetime guarantees
This is a Public Service Announcement, brought to you, in part, by Poundsaver.
A "lifetime guarantee" means exactly what it says: it is a guarantee that lasts for the life of the product in question. The instant the product breaks, its life is over, and the guarantee has just expired.
Logical.
