Freebies (free [busy] bees)
Question Author
If ans to 3D is Asset (anagram seats) that would clash with Freebies?
Freebees.
^^^ Jim's answer is almost certainly correct and, indeed, sits better with the clue.

However it's not the way that I usually see that word spelt and neither is it the way that I'd spell it myself!
Question Author
It's the spelling of Freebees that appears incorrect.
Yes thats what Buenchics saying
The OED gives the primary spelling as 'freebie' but also notes the following:
"Forms: 1900s– freebe, 1900s– freebee, 1900s– freebie, 1900s– freeby".

So 'freebee' isn't, according to the OED, 'wrong' but simply 'unusual'.
Yes sorry- 'freebee' is a unusual spelling rather than incorrect
