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?

Mrs. Kites' Family
Now I'm a cheap bastard and don't like spending money on others (equally I'm not mad on receiving gifts). Mrs Kites' family however are always sending gifts to each other, but they are always 'orrible £shop tat - pottery figures with string legs ? How charming. A "cut glass" (?resin?) swan ? Delightful.
Worst thing is pretending to be over the moon at what you have receieved. Please, just save your time and money.
