Cheap TatOneEyedMonster 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?

Aaarrggh not the 'foodie' gifts!Dear Mr/Ms/Other Greencloud.
I had successfully moved the memory from my addled brain and the guilty items to the back of the cupboard that time forgot...
Purple Yam mash
Cannibal Relish (quite nice this one)
Korean Kimchee
Dipping spice mix that tasted like ermm vaguely spicy stale gravel
Preserved desert glace limes. Why? Just why?
Chilli sauce so volatile that COSHH regs were broken
Obscure (for a reason) marinades
Stuff in jars reeking of deceased fish
'Decorative' Oil/Vinegars
'Decorative' bottles of oil with what closely resembles a velociraptor foetus floating within
That's just the current stock...
