Crossword Genius

Last offer (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hold out

This clue is a double definition.

'last' is the first definition.
(holding out is a kind of lasting)

'offer' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for hold out that I've seen before include "Offer as inducement or resist capture" , "Offer inducement or maintain resistance" , "Resist (against siege)" , "Continue to be sufficient" , "Offer - last" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer, The Globe and Mail, The Mirror and The Times.
