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?

meh
I spent about £150 on a dvd player a few years back. Its a proper Sony thing and looks very smart, but refuses to play anything but the cleanest of discs and wont even consider any copied discs or cd`s.
I invested about £19 on some unpronouncable make from Asda and despite looking like it might fall apart at any moment, it will play pretty much anything.
