Put off getting hold of tin and stoppered bottle (8)
I believe the answer is:
decanter
'stoppered bottle' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'put off getting hold of tin' is the wordplay.
'put off' becomes 'deter' (both can mean to discourage).
'getting hold of' is an insertion indicator.
'tin' becomes 'can' (synonyms).
'deter' placed around 'can' is 'DECANTER'.
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for decanter that I've seen before include "Liquor vessel" , "Wine or spirits container" , "Vessel with stopper for serving wine" , "Ornamental bottle for dispensing wine" , "Recanted (anag.)" .)
