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?

Without wanting to pry too much
Does your child suffer asthma, or is ill very often?
I think the kids exposed to a bit of dirt and grime tend to get ill less than those living in a spotless, disinfected germ free environment. As a kid i ate everything in the garden from spiders and earthworms to just earth. I've had 1 sick day in the last 3 1/2 years (food poisoning) and recently got my first allergy (cheap washing powder) other than that healthy as.
