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

'profit from drinking spot?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'profit' could be 'gain' (synonyms) and 'gain' is found in the answer.
'drinking spot?' could be 'bar' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'bar' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'over' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
