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?

Belgium, man, Belgium!
I pootle off to my local supermarket and get beer for ~75p a bottle.
Saw exactly the same stuff in Waitrose (ooh, poncy) for about £2-3 for utterly identical bottles.
Including the 10 cents apiece on the empty bottles if returned to a Belgian supermarket.
