Various purchases stain after juice tipped (3,3)

I believe the answer is:

job lot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'juice tipped' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'various purchases stain after' is the wordplay.
'various purchases' becomes 'jo' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'stain' becomes 'blot' (synonyms).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'jo'+'blot'='JOB-LOT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for job lot that I've seen before include "Collection under the hammer" , "discounted items" , "Mixed collection sold together" , "biblical characters" , "Collection of odds and ends for sale" .)
