to be a big fish in a small pond
to be a small fish in a big pond
It's often said that's it's better to be a big fish in a small pond than to be a small fish in a big pond.
Example: Some actors may be successful and famous in England (and so are big fish in a small pond) but if they move to America they may suddenly find themselves in a new situation where nobody knows them (and so they are now small fish in a big pond).

 to be going for a song
If you say that a product is going for a song then the price is very, very low. It is very cheap.
For example, if the normal price for a product is $99 and a shop is selling it for $30 then you could say that it is going for a song.


Joke: "If you had a dollar," quizzed the teacher, "and you asked your father for another dollar and fifty cents, how much money would you have?"
"One dollar." answered little Johnny.
"You don't know your arithmetic," said the teacher shaking her head.
Little Johnny shook his head too, saying, "You don't know my father."
