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

"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."
