[Prize Draw] Let us know about your favourite bargain

I went in to Maplin's and they had a £1 'reject bucket' full of items that had been returned 'faulty'.  Some weren't worth much but there was a radio in there that I knew was worth £99.99.  It was labelled 'faulty'.  I'm willing to take a chance like that for £1.  I got it home and unsurprisingly, it didn't work.  It didn't even switch on.

So I unscrewed the radio and found one single wire that was lose.  I soldered it in place and closed the radio.  Voilà.  It worked perfectly.
