@Sasha_: A rain check is a promise that an unaccepted offer will be renewed in the future.
This term comes from baseball, where in the 1880s it became the practice to offer paying spectators a rain check entitling them to future admission for a game that was postponed or ended early owing to bad weather. By the early 1900s the term was transferred to tickets for other kinds of entertainment, and later to a coupon entitling a customer to buy, at a later date and at the same price, a sale item temporarily out of stock.

Mainly used at a grocery store.
A coupon given to a customer by a store, guaranteeing that the sale item that is out of stock may be purchased by that customer at a later date at the same reduced price.
