The meaning that I guessed was totally different.

That way of expressing a meaning is similar to
sarcasm: it states what you don't mean, not what you do mean.
In general, negative communication isn't clear, so I suggest
carefully avoiding.

If you had said, "as a bonus, we will get advantages X, Y and Z,"
it would have been fully clear.

The word "free" is a special pitfall.  I've taught myself _never_ to
use the word "free" except to refer to freedom.  If I mean "at no
cost", I say it without "free".  I am just as careful about this when
I describes someone else's views as when I state my own.

In a quotation, I replace "free" with "[gratis]"; that means "perse
said something that meant 'gratis'".  The square brackets are a
scholarly convention to state that one has emended a quotation.
