What addict maybe did to obtain free drugs once? (9)
I believe the answer is:
scrounged
'what addict maybe did to' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'free drugs once?' is the wordplay.
'free' is an anagram indicator.
'drugs'+'once'='drugsonce'
'drugsonce' with letters rearranged gives 'SCROUNGED'.
'obtain' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for scrounged that I've seen is " Co-eds rung up and cadged".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
