I am frugally treated in miscellaneous gathering (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gallimaufry

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'miscellaneous gathering' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'i am frugally treated' is the wordplay.
'treated' is an anagram indicator.
'i'+'am'+'frugally'='iamfrugally'
'iamfrugally' is an anagram of 'GALLIMAUFRY'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gallimaufry that I've seen before include "collection of odds and ends" , "Hotchpotch" , "Jumble" .)
