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?

Oh, and I forgot to mention...I had a similar argument with her over a heavy canvas shirt that I wanted for when I was having to go through heavy underbrush- I wanted to spend $40 for it and she started to make fizzing noises, but I bought it anyway amid much snarling and snarking. That was in 1987. I still have that shirt and it's only now getting a bit worn out.
Yes indeed, a very special lack of sense on her part. *shaking head*
