The idiom ‘Take a Rain check’ is used to indicate that you cannot accept an invitation now, but that you’d like to do the same activity sometime in the future.
Baseball games were sometimes cancelled on account of rain in the days before modern ballparks. When this happened, ticket holders were given a new ticket, called a rain check, to use to attend another game in the future.
Eg: As I have to study for the exam tomorrow, I’ll take a rain check on the party invite.
