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?

Even betterGo in about half an hour before closing time (sundays are particularly good) and you will find loads of real food reduced because it's useby date is that day. Remember, most things freeze fine and just about everything has more shelf life than the supermarket useby dates would have us believe.
Pro Tip: find a smallish supermarket in a not-very-well-off area and you are sure to find fancy things like organic milk and premium range steak reduced (because most people in the area are too poor to buy it, it sits on the shelf until it is reduced on it's useby date).
