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?

More £1 headphones.
These ones were absolute cack. The wires were incredibly thin, and snapped after about 2 uses. But that didn't matter because the sound quality was so shit - both distorted AND so quiet that you couldn't hear it at the same time.
I took them back for a refund. They told me they didn't do refunds. I threw a strop.

96p headphones from Asda
oddly enough worked perfectly for years. I guess in the realm of cheap tat it's just luck of the draw really.
