going halves
Dividing costs evenly
Going halves means splitting something equally between two people, usually a cost or expense: Let's go halves on the pizza.
The phrase implies a fifty-fifty division rather than some other proportion.
It can extend beyond money to sharing food, duties, or anything divisible: We went halves on the last piece of cake.
