How it's used

The term carries a slightly opportunistic nuance, implying that one has successfully captured an extra benefit.
Examples

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 著衫, which means to wear clothes. The character 著 here is pronounced differently, specifically as a noun referring to an advantage rather than the verb for wearing or the aspect marker.
