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?

Freeveiw
Living in a house of student, we needed a decent telly system. Got a hand me down that worked fine, but wanted freeveiw. Cheap housemate (buys everything on eBay, EVERYTHING) gets a cheap freeveiw box, which we gave him our share for.
The sound or picture would skip every few seconds, oddly on the punchlines to any jokes. Spent m onths woundering why people were laughing at topgear.
