Free Cheese

An expression for when you get something for free.

Originating from a band of Cornish smugglers who abandoned a load of cheese at the bottom of a beach, after not being able to carry it up the steep slope. The local villagers stole it before they could get back to it, creating the phrase "free cheese".

"Just got an extra chicken nugget, free cheese"
