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?

Christmas Shite
The crappy pencil sharpener magnet got me thinking about Christmas just gone. Some highlights include:
My bf's gift to his brother of a musical toilet complete with bobbing smiley-face plastic turd and "realistic" flushing sounds
My bro's gift to me of a retro Casio digital watch
My gift to my bro of an LED belt complete with bizarre English-ish instructions and fully programmable messages
A plastic squid I got out of a cracker, which wasn't as bad as the genuine Diamonesque necklace my bf got in his "luxury" cracker. He preferred the little plastic plane he got in the much cheaper one. I crashed it into his drink.
Isn't Christmas brilliant?
