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?

Have you ever seen those adverts against movie piracy?
You know, the ones where they smear Vaseline over the image, shrink it to be a tiny square just off centre in the middle of the screen, replace the sound with a MIDI file and try to convince you that pirates films are just like that?
And they never are anything like that.
Apart from the copy of Superman Returns I bought off a handsome persuasive young Bulgarian gentleman.
Didn't cost me much, but knowing Bulgaria it was probably enough to put his kids through University there and therefore I feel robbed.
