Something added in addition to a product to make it appear better value for money. Windows 98 had many value added utilities on its CD in the VALUEADD directory.

| 2. | purse | ||
|
A purse is usually small and made of leather. A woman keeps it in her handbag. It contains valuables such as coins, credit cards, a driving licence, paper money and postage stamps. We noticed a woman looking at a lovely leather purse in the War on Want charity shop in Ballynahinch, Co. Down the other day. She took it to the counter, took her purse from her handbag, took out some money and handed it to the assistant. The voluntary assistant said "Thank You", put the purse into a plastic bag and handed it to the woman.

| 4. | sold it for a song | ||
|
Fig. to sell something for very little money. (As in trading something of value for the singing of a song.) I had a beautiful apartment on Venice Beach. Selling that place it's one of my biggest regrets in life. Because I sold it for a song and now the real state there is worth so much.

| 6. | money | ||
|
Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them. Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade and give value for value. Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver.

| 7. | Subeta | ||
|
A virtual pet website that stole the ideas for every aspect of its site from Neopets.
The admins on this site are apparently "approachable" and "actually able to be talked to." This translates into, the only way to succeed on Subeta is to get friendly with the admins. The only people the admins care about though, are those who donate money (5$ each month) to have "gold accounts" with which they can take advantage of all the features that make it impossible for normal users who value their money to do anything. A website to entertain fools who enjoy parting with their money in exchange for "cute" pixel images. 1.
