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?

This is a question reply When I was larl
I got one of those spy-ear things. They amplify sound, enabling you to eavesdrop on unsuspecting peoples conversations.

"It's amazing* what old people talk about on the bus!" I thought, as I discarded the dead listening device in the bin - it had lasted less than the 20 minute ride home!

*rather nauseating
