cost

Cost

(See also PAYMENT .)

an arm and a leg An exorbitant amount of money; a popular American hyperbole.

bleed See EXTORTION .

for a song Cheaply, inexpensively, at low cost, for little or nothing. A song meaning ‘a trifle or thing of no consequence’ may stem from the supposed retort of Baron Burleigh on being ordered by Elizabeth I to give Edmund Spenser an annuity of 100 pounds for having composed the Faerie Queene:

All this for a song?

In any event, a song as an insignificance dates from Elizabethan times, for Shakespeare uses it in this sense in All’s Well That Ends Well (1601).

for love or money At any price; by any means available. This phrase is most frequently used in the negative expression not for love or money to imply that someone or something is unobtainable at any price—either financial or emotional.

He let me … use … Anglo-Saxon texts not elsewhere to be had for love or money. (Francis March, A Comparative Grammar of the Anglo-Saxon Language, 1870)

highway robbery Exorbitantly or outrageously high prices. The allusion is to highwaymen, the holdup men of yesteryear who roamed the public roads robbing travelers. This expression is often used to express indignation at ridiculously high prices which one is nevertheless forced to pay for lack of an alternative, just as the victims of highwaymen had no choice but to surrender their money and goods at the risk of their lives. The expression has been in figurative use since at least 1920.

Nothing on the wine list … under two-pound-ten. Highway robbery by candlelight. (J. B. Priestley, It’s Old Country, 1967)

pay through the nose To pay an exorbitant price, financially or otherwise, unwittingly or through coercion. Many variations on one story line are cited as sources for this expression. The most popular is that the Danes in the 9th century imposed a “nose tax” on the Irish. Those who neglected to pay were punished by having their noses slit. Some say the Swedes or Norwegians were the oppressors. Others say the Jews rather than the Irish were the oppressed. However, pay through the nose derives from the punishment, irrespective of who inflicted the punishment on whom. The phrase was used as early as 1672 and is commonly heard today, often implying an unawareness or naiveté on the part of the person “paying through the nose.”

pay too dearly for one’s whistle To pay more for some desired object than it is worth; to expend a great deal of time, effort, or money for something which does not come up to one’s expectations; to indulge a whim. This expression is based on Benjamin Franklin’s The Whistle (1799), which tells of his nephew’s wanting a certain whistle so much that he paid its owner four times its value. As soon as the whistle had been acquired, however, it lost its appeal of the unattainable, leaving the boy disappointed with his purchase.

If a man likes to do it he must pay for his whistle. (George Eliot, Daniel Deronda, 1876)
