Thrift (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

economy

'thrift' is the definition.
(I know that economy is a type of thrift)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for economy that I've seen before include "Judicious expenditure of money" , "Financial system" , "Frugality" , "Careful use of resources" , "Careful expenditure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Telegraph, The Independent and The Sunday Times.
