How Much are First Dibs?
- What is similar to first dibs?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 2, 2023
“First pick,” “exclusive access” and “right of first refusal” are all phrases that are similar to “first dibs.”
First dibs, which means to have the rights to something or the first choice of something, reportedly emerged in the United States in the early 1930s. (In the United Kingdom, the first recorded occurrence of the slang phrase took place during the late 1800s.) To verbally call first dibs on something means that you’re laying claim to it. Who doesn’t want first dibs?
