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?

I love ginger beer, me, but when I was broke, well, cutbacks must be made. Asda were knocking out four two litre bottles of my favourite fizz for 99p! WOO! Treat time!
So I got it home, cracked it open, poured a pint and eeeek that's acidic! It make my gums recede and bleed like bastards and I could feel the acid melt my teeth. Why I didn't bin the rest I don't know....some of my gums are still slightly receded, six years on. Stupid eejit. Should have used it to clean the concrete patio instead.

tesco's ginger beer is quite good, not quite as good as old Jamaica ginger beer but not far off
