Oster-Gewinnspiel mit Kerzenständer und Autogrammkarten

What does “wir legen auch noch was drauf” mean in German?

“Wir legen auch noch was drauf” does not mean someone is literally putting an object down. The verb “drauflegen” (drauf = on top, legen = to lay) means “add something extra to make an offer better.” In the clip the host gives away a candle holder, then “legt noch was drauf”: he signs it and adds a full set of autograph cards. Use it any time someone adds a bonus to a gift or deal.

In the clip: “Und nicht nur das, sondern wir legen auch noch was drauf.” — “And not only that, we’ll also throw in something extra on top.” The pieces: “drauf” means “on top,” “legen” means “to lay/put.” Together “drauflegen” = add more on top of what’s already offered. “Was” here is short for “etwas” (something), so “noch was drauflegen” = “add something more on top.” Examples: “Wenn du heute kaufst, legen wir noch ein Geschenk drauf.” — “If you buy today, we’ll add a gift on top.” · “Der Chef hat nochmal hundert Euro draufgelegt.” — “The boss put another hundred euros on top.” Usage note: very common in shops, deals, and giveaways. It can mean adding money (paying more) or adding a bonus item — the context tells you which. The opposite idea is just a plain offer with nothing extra.
