A toss up
Meaning: a decision between two choices/options.
Example:- Abby: Jimmy, what should we do tomorrow?
- Jimmy: Well, I think it is a toss up between going to the beach, or watching a movie.
- Abby: Why can't we do both?
- Jimmy: Ok, let's watch a movie at the beach!

Origin: A toss up comes from the "game" of flipping (or tossing) a coin into the air. Before it falls down, one person will call "heads" or "tails". If it lands correctly, then that person wins! Many people will flip a coin to make decisions as well. Maybe they will say something like, "if it is heads, I will go to the beach. And if it is tails, I will go to the mall". Or something like that.
