Eat at another's expense (8)

I believe the answer is:

freeload

(Other definitions for freeload that I've seen before include "Bum" , "Accept generosity while giving nothing in return" , "Scrounge" , "Without giving anything in return, take" , "Enjoy oneself at another's expense" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
