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?

Plastic Bow and ArrowsBought a cowboy and indian set from a pound shop, the bow was pretty decent. However the lick & stick sucker arrows were about as effective as Middle-East peace talks.
Therefore I decided to modify it a little, out went the platted string on the bow and in came some elastic bands that I'd cut and bunched together. The bolts were chopsticks, one had a pen-nib tip to it and the other had an old key. The flights were made with old laminated bus passes.
They fly quite far and punch through cardboard, I usually aim at squirrels who eat all the bird food, but I can't hit the buggers for shit. My old man had more luck with the air-rifle, shot one of their tails clean off...he wont be balancing no more.
