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?

Haha, Secret Santa gifts!We did a Secret Santa in my office a couple of years ago, with something like a £5 limit. Therefore, everything was going to be tat - but actually, of the 5 of us, 4 got reasonable things - I got the Flanimals book, one colleague got some nice bath stuff, one had tons of sweets and one got a little gardening set.
But one gift didn't quite live up to this... my mate Tom got from his Secret Santa: a pizza cutter.
We didn't bother this year, mainly because there's only 2 of us now...
