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?

Renault 4s
they were cool...oh wait a minute that's a lie.
My mum and dad both had one each! a blue and a red one. Dads was ok it worked fine but my mums had an oil leak and she had to put 5 litres of oil per 20 miles driven! She refused to get a new oil sump because it was too expensive !
if that's not a false economy I don't know what is.
