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?

Korean cars
are actually bloody glood, in my experience of the newer Daewoos (sorry, 'Chevrolets') anyway.
Agree with you about tools though. It really is worth spending the cash on a decent set - as I found out when none of the sockets in my Halfords Special socket set would undo any of the bolts on my car.
