How do you use lagniappe in a sentence?

In: Languages and Cultures [Edit categories]

Answer:

It means a little something thrown in for free, typically a small gift from a merchant to a customer. Seems to have found a home in New Orleans. Pronounced as lanny-ap.

I purchased 4 bottles of wine, and the merchant placed a folding corkscrew in the bag, smiled and said "Dat's fo lagniappe."
