Strip for a paltry amount of money (7)
I believe the answer is:
peanuts
'strip' is the definition.
(comic strip featuring Charlie Brown and Snoopy)
'paltry amount of money' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'amount' could be 'nut' (nut is a kind of amount) and 'nut' is located in the answer.
'money' could be 'p' and 'p' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'eas' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'for a' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for peanuts that I've seen before include "Paltry sum of money" , "Schulz cartoon; trifling sum" , "Not much money - from low-growing plant" , "A derisory amount of money" , "Snack food - comic strip with Snoopy and Charlie Brown" .)
