Live at last in store, say? Boots will probably have it (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
shoe-peg
'boots will probably have it' is the definition.
'live at last in store say?' is the wordplay.
'at last' suggests the final letters.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'store' becomes 'shop' ('shop' can be a synonym of 'store'**).
'say?' becomes 'eg'.
The last letter of 'live' is 'e'.
'e' placed into 'shop' is 'shoep'.
'shoep'+'eg'='SHOE-PEG'
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
