Crap GadgetsWe wanted a monkey butler and bought one off eBay. Imagine our surprise when we found it was just an ordinary monkey with rabies. Worse: It had no butler training at all. Tell us about your duff technology purchases.
Thanks to Moonbadger for the suggestion

Bought a crap gadget for someone elseI had forgotten to buy a wedding present for a bloke who I was best man for. As if my being best man wasn't gift enough! I jest.
So at the last minute I rushed into a cheapo kitchen shop and bought a knife sharpener. This was for a couple just getting married, meaning they'd probably been given 5 new sets of kitchen knives.
This was years ago. I heard later that they didn't even take it out of the box for years. And when they did eventually use it, it made a horrible clunking sound and a load of cogs dropped out. So they threw it away. I should have brought them a bread maker.
