If you are doing your own plumbing, the trick I have learned is buy more than you will need. If you are not sure which size fittiing buy both. It is still less expensive than a pro. Of course this assumes that you have some mechanical skills. If it's a trap under a counter or hidden plastic is a good thing.
If all else fails there is always duct tape, hose clamps or a pail.......

RTV silicone, and lots of it. I have a plastic to galvy steel connection that I siliconed nearly 30 years ago, still no drips.
Plumbers, feel free to freak out here
