I shop around to get piece of furniture for welcoming (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hospitable

'welcoming' is the definition.
('hospitable' can be similar in meaning to 'welcoming')

'i shop around to get piece of furniture' is the wordplay.
'around' is an anagram indicator.
'to get' says to put letters next to each other.
'piece of furniture' becomes 'table' (table is a kind of piece of furniture**).
'i'+'shop'='ishop'
'ishop' anagrammed gives 'hospi'.
'hospi'+'table'='HOSPITABLE'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for hospitable that I've seen before include "Warm" , "Helpful" , "Friendly, welcoming" , "Welcoming to guests" , "kind" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
