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?

Sounds like something I would have done!
There are tons of old bike frames downtown locked to various things, having had everything stripped from them. I'm sure I could get quite a few of those. The only hard part would be finding wheels, as those are the first things to get swiped.
I may have to give this a try, just for fun...
