Cadge rugs, once refurbished (8)
I believe the answer is:
scrounge
'cadge' is the definition.
(I know that cadge can be written as scrounge)
'rugs once refurbished' is the wordplay.
'refurbished' indicates an anagram.
'rugs'+'once'='rugsonce'
'rugsonce' is an anagram of 'SCROUNGE'.
(Other definitions for scrounge that I've seen before include "Cadge, beg" , "Seek something free from others" , "Obtain by begging" , "Freeload" , "Cur's gone (anag) - beg" .)
