Curry for one dollar also picked up in faraway location (8)
I believe the answer is:
timbuktu
'faraway location' is the definition.
(city in Mali)
'curry for one dollar also picked up' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'curry' could be 'tim' (actor Tim Curry) and 'tim' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for timbuktu that I've seen before include "Town in Mali used as a metaphor for a distant place" , "Oh, go to - very remote town in Mali, Africa?" , "remote location" , "'City in Mali, once famous for its gold trade (8)'" , "Any distant or outlandish place (in Mali?)" .)
