Something along those lines
We use this expression when we mean something similar to what has just been mentioned, but not necessarily exactly the same.
Example:
Imagine your friend is moving into a new apartment, and you want to get them a housewarming gift.
Someone asks:
“What are you thinking of getting them?”
You haven’t decided yet, but you have a general idea.
So you say:
“Maybe a nice plant, a candle, or something for the kitchen — something along those lines.”
