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?

My fiancee and I........have a fancy Breville kettle that lights up and we actually use the simmer function (I get up first, make a cuppa, put kettle on simmer so it takes less time to heat up when she comes down for her brew)
Her parents have an expensive see-through one, but if you need to fill it after it has recently been boiled the latent steam creates a vaccum and you need Hulk like strength to get the lid off.
ummmmmm............KETTLES!
