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?

Another one...
We had a big family get together the saturday before xmas (22 of us i think) and a few weeks before some clown decided it would be a good idea to do a secret santa with a limit of $25.
All fun was being had as the gifts were being handed out, everyone getting half decent "usefull" stuff.
It came to me. It was obvious who mine was from. Mine was a plastic shit M&Ms dispenser in the style of the statue of liberty. My uncle had got back from NY the day before. He must have thought that i was 8*, oh and it didnt even have any bloody m&m's in it.
I gave it to the dog once he left, even he didnt want it.
