two-for-one
Buy, get another
Two-for-one describes a deal where buying one item gets you a second free or at a steep discount: The bar has two-for-one drinks on Thursdays.
The phrase works as an adjective before nouns (two-for-one sale) or stands alone (Buy now—it's two-for-one).
Figuratively, it describes getting double value from a single action: Exercising with a friend is two-for-one—fitness and socializing.
