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?

Christ on a bike!My mother made me wear some hand-me-downs and other hideous shit. I think there is even photographic evidence somewhere of me wearing a home-knitted (by my gran from a pattern in Womans weekly circa 1963) green cardigan to a SCHOOL PARTY.
But never, ever did they subject me to the outright ridicule that you describe. You poor poor bastard, you have my deepest sympathy.
