This is a question 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?

My dad used to do a Betterware round
Actually, he might still do it. Along with about 5 other jobs to make ends meet. Following his sacking in Saudi for wearing shorts in a bar, he vowed he would never take orders from anyone again. Which is fine, but he doesn't drive, so a Betterware round is possibly not the best option when you're covering an area of around 6 square miles...

I refer to his self employment as selling crap to people who can't afford to pay him for it.
