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?

Why indeed?I guess they only need to sell one box to every 100th person in the world and they are rich.
Why even bother, though, is one of my thoughts when I occasionally encounter crap like that. I think about the fact that someone, somewhere is making this shite. Ordering the substandard ingredients, mixing it halfheartedly together, packing it, wrapping it, shipping it, doing the paperwork, and all for a product that is so appalling that you would never buy it again.
