This is a question 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 torch tale ...
I got given a solar powered torch. Worked a treat for about 6 weeks until the battery wouldn't take a charge anymore, so it became exactly what it said on the tin:
A solar powered torch. When the sun shone, the torch would light up. Sun goes behind cloud, torch goes out.
