Cheapies refers to cheap thrills — those low-effort, slightly trashy pleasures that entertain you without requiring any real investment. Whether it's a guilty-pleasure reality show, a trashy tabloid, or a budget bin horror flick, cheapies deliver a quick buzz of salacious excitement. The word can also describe bargain purchases that feel like a steal, often with the implication that you are not being very dignified about your enjoyment.
