just for chagrins

[Benjamin Zimmer]

Noted by Mike Pope on Evolving English II:

Examples given:
"just for chagrins, lets just suppose that everything in this film is
embellished"
"That might be neat to find out just for chagrins."
"Will probably resurrect the F body and try the filter with it (just
for chagrins..)"

Mike suggests (rightly, I think) that this is a malapropism and not an eggcorn.
