Cheap TatOneEyedMonster 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?

Buy an American toasterThose horrible pieces of shit Eurotoasters are crap! They toast the bread so slowly by the time the outside is browned, the whole slice is toasted through and then it sits there and gets cold before you can butter the damn thing. Argh!
We had a nasty fucking Nazi POS Krups toaster and even though it was fine I threw it through the window in a fit of pique. I like toast nice and hot and brown on the outside, warm and soft on the inside. Not like a cedar shake for God's sake! I could roof my house with German toast. Actually, my fave is burned-on-the-outside toast with melted peanut butter and a big glass of ice cold whole milk.
