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?

Paid about £1800 ten years ago and it still looks brand new. I know I'd be able to get at least £800 cash for it any time I chose. And if I put it on a flat surface at night, it sings me to sleep with the soft ticking of its hundreds of bejewelled parts.
