    Buy 2 Get 2 Free (of a specific product)

    Does anyone know of a module that does this?

    - for a SPECIFIC product, for every 2 a customer buys, they get 2 more free
    - no coupon code required
    - can be set up on multiple products at one time, so if they buy 2 of ABC they get 2 more ABCs free, and if they concurrently buy 4 of XYZ, then they get 4 more XYZs free

    Thanks,
    Susan

    I know only Bill's BuyXGetY although it doesn't add free products just adds a negative charge in the correct value. You can either inlcude or exclude products.

      Thanks Andreas. That one doesn't look like you can limit it to a given product though, just if you buy X products then the cheapest one is free. Let me know if you know otherwise. I haven't used it in years.

              I checked with Bill, who confirmed that his module doesn't do this.

                Andreas - While you can specify products it is not a BOGO type scenario. The number of qualified items in the basket is summed and the discount based on that total. So you could have 9 ABC and 1 XYZ. The discount would be based on 10 total. So if you set it up buy 5 and the lowest priced item is free, the 10 example would result in the lowest 2 items in the basket being free (as a separate line item deduction).

                  Hi Susan -- I have a module that does what you're looking for ... almost.

                  http://www.mvtrocks.com/p-MAGIC-MAGICUPSALE5.html

                  Specific products: yes. Multiple products: yes. No coupon required.

                  But it only does one-for-one discounts; it can't set a minimum qty. of 2. However, you could get around that by creating products that are 2-packs of the original items.

                  As it happens, I'm in the process of creating a new version of this module: a major rewrite with more advanced features. If your client wants to be an early adopter, let's talk!

                  Thanks --

                    Thanks, I've let him know to review this thread. I'm not sure if that will suit him or not, but if so we'll be in touch. Thanks Kent.

                      It's also worth noting this is natively supported in Version 9.

                        Cool. Have you released the list of features that are going to be included in 9, yet?
