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?

JewelleryAs a teenager, I would buy myself cheap jewellery. I plan to wear it once or twice at the most, and then chuck it away, thus continuously updating and altering my "look" (yes, I was a bit of a consumerist fool).
Jewellery would turn my skin green, give me a rash, or simply fall apart, within 30 mins of putting it on. Every single time. Sometimes I'd also getting the added bonus of looking like hooch-addicted jailbait.
Meh.
Damn you, Claire's Accessories.

Haha, hurrah for Claire's Accessories!I bought some bangles from there (you can just about see them in this rather cool photo). Every time I get home after wearing them for the evening I have green forearms, and it takes lots of scrubbing to get rid of it =)

"Sometimes I'd also getting the added bonus of looking like hooch-addicted jailbait."That's quote of the week for me, I'm going to click because that sentence made me laugh like a loon.
