On a ____ (with little money) (10)

I believe the answer is:

shoestring

(Other definitions for shoestring that I've seen before include "Lace" , "Barely sufficient funds" , "may keep Oxford secure" , "for securing a trainer?" , "Minimal amount of money" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune.
