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?

Speaking of predictive text...
Has anyone noticed that if you type in "Fuck" with predictive text, it comes up as "Dual"?
Hurray came up as "Hurrcy" and Hooray came up as "Innscry" on my Nokia N95, for the record.
Mind you, you can teach T9 your own words, and abbreviations. So mine is chock full of profanity :-)
