two for one

Buy, get another

Two for one describes an offer where you get two items for the price of one: The store has a two-for-one deal on socks.

Sometimes styled 2-for-1.

The phrase extends to any situation yielding double benefit from single effort: Combining the meetings was a two-for-one—saved us all a trip.
