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?

Landlording scum!
The house I lived in for my second year of uni was terrible too, the landlord had obviously spared no expense buying himself nice things, to the point where my desk was a wooden door, fixed to the wall at one end with a couple of "L" brackets, and held up the other end with a pair of stair banister spindles.
I decided against putting my computer on it, after it wobbled from the weight of a couple of books.
