What does "a few grain of salt in the pocket" mean in this sentense?
The sentense is
"Hey, if you love cheap, want a smartphone but the your pocket only has a few grain of salt within them, then you'd be happy to know that Motorola is planning cheap mid-ranged Android smartphones for next year."
I can't get what did he mean by this phrase: "but your pocket only has a few grain of salt within them"

"a few grain of salt in the pocket" means that you don't have much money, only a few kopecs in your pocket.

Dear *Sean*, I wanted to comment on your comment. There are some mistakes that I wanted to point out. Here is what you meant to say " Thank you , Dmitry. Thank you for your question. And I didn't know it too.So now It's clear.:)".

Hi Dimitry, Jura got it right but there is a couple of mistakes in the sentence. The in "but the your pocket" should be dropped, it's not suppose to be there. Grain in the sentence is suppose to be plural, meaning it's suppose to be grains.
