Save to get a good deal (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bargain

'a good deal' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'save to get' is the wordplay.
'save' becomes 'bar' (I've seen this before).
'to get' becomes 'gain' (gaining is a kind of getting).
'bar'+'gain'='BARGAIN'

(Other definitions for bargain that I've seen before include "Cheap purchase" , "Haggle; a good deal" , "Agreement, snip" , "Negotiate terms" , "Cheap acquisition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
