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?

For a quid?
I'm not a rich bloke, but surely you must question the gain from effort involved? Besides, I think they may object since I amused myself for a while by seeing just how malleable the mild steel was and bending them into pretty shapes.
If they're still in the garage, I may consider recycling them into a ninja stylee weapon to use in a pound-shop rampage.
