fit someone/thing in (or into)
1Find room or have sufficient space for someone or something: can you fit any more water into the jug?...- There is enough room to fit the power cable in there, but I think a bit more space would make it easier for people with large hands to connect and disconnect the cable.
- The space inside seems too small to fit the elaborate furniture in the room.
- I have been focusing on fitting my things into the very limited space this apartment affords.
1.1Succeed in finding time in a busy schedule to see someone or do something: I could fit you in at 3.45 this afternoon...- The organisers were hoping the champion runner would fit the event into her busy schedule.
- This enabled her to decide when she worked and to fit it in around her busy schedule, which included picking up the kids from school.
- How do you fit your workouts into such a busy schedule?
