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?

A greenish colour perchance?
Probably due to nickel or copper ions leaching out of the cheap metal in contact with skin moistness. Look closely at the holes in your ears (well, as closely as you can look at your own earlobes...) and check for green-ness. You don't really want that to get into your bloodstream.

Unless of course you are actually an alien and have green blood or something. :-)
