"Cheaper by the dozen" = rẻ hơn với mười hai -> cụm từ này có thể được hiểu theo hai nghĩa là: rẻ hơn khi mua số lượng lớn; ít tốn sức và đạt hiệu quả cao hơn nếu nhiều người cùng giải quyết một vấn đề nào đó.

Ví dụ
It really is cheaper by the dozen thanks to a sweet deal courtesy of Krispy Kreme. Customers who buy a dozen of any doughnuts can get a dozen chocolate glazed doughnuts for only $2.

Now we know that home-run records are getting cheaper by the dozen — which is one fewer than the number of blasts the Diamondbacks and Phillies combined to hit in one game in June, a new mark.

The collection also features an extremely rare bottle number 1 of 1957 Bowmore 54 year old “Crashing Waves”. What makes this particular bottle so valuable? Only 12 were ever released. Cheaper by the dozen certainly doesn’t apply here, as this particular whisky is estimated to be worth between $100,000 and $130,000.
