We'll get together another time, or in a store when the item is back in stock.

yeah if you say it to a person it would mean can you save that idea for another time when I am less busy?
Retail stores, mainly grocery stores use rainchecks for when they are out of a particular item on sale. It allows you to purchase that item in the future at the discounted price (usually only a limited quantity).

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.
