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?

For the last 17 years, my brother and I have been giving each other a bottle of 'similar' eau de cologne bought for a pound at the market (we were celebrating an intentional 'bad taste' christmas that year).
The same bottle. Some jokes are too good to die.
It gets regifted again and again, and each christmas the lucky recipient gets to wear it and smell like a polecat's ringpiece for a day.
