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 Cheapo light bulbs
We bought some cheapo light bulbs, guess how much - yes - £1. Using them seemed ok, until one shot out of the light onto the table and exploded. Then a few days later, one shot out of the lamp, up in the air and exploded. Cheap crap. Lots of fun when you are a kid though. I was about 10.
