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?

Talking of badly blurred pictures...
I once saw a wine bottle opener with an awfully blurred picture of what looked like a sleek chrome bottle opener with a sticker on the front which appeared, from a distance, to say "SEEN ON TV!".
On closer inspection it said, in tiny writing "similar to products" and then "SEEN ON TV!"
