リーダーズダイジェスト４月号の特集記事を紹介するページでFare Gameと題した特集を次ぎのように紹介しています。
How to take advantage of the financial crisis to bag yourself a great holiday
この "bag" の意味が分からないので辞書を引きます。
American Herritage Dictionary: Informal To gain possession of; capture.
Cambridge Advanced Learner's English Dictionary: to get something before other people have a chance to take it: Bag us some decent seats/Bag some decent seats for us if you get there first, won't you?
Encarta World English Dictionary: obtain something: to take, catch, seize, or steal something, usually in an opportunistic way ( informal ): They've gotten hold of our mailing list and are using it to try to bag some of our customers.
"bag oneself" の例が辞書では見つからないのが気になりますが、単に何かを得ると言うより "usually in an opportunistic way" つまり、特集記事の場合 "financial crisis" を逆に利用しての意味が込められているようです。
