Promotion - 2: Buy 'X' and get '2Z' free

Actions Conditions:
- Note: In this case, when the user updates the cart with 1 qty. of HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop SKU, the Special Offer(s) section will be displayed on the cart page.
- When the user clicks the Avail Offer link in the Special Offer(s) section, a popup will be opened displaying the free product as configured in Promotion - 1.
- The user can click the Add button to add the free product to the cart from the popup. The next promotion i.e. promotion -2 will come into action. The Special Offer(s) section will now display the offer message defined in the Message for Action Conditions text box of the Rule Information' section of Promotion - 2.
- When the user clicks the Avail Offer link in the Special Offer(s) section, a popup will be opened displaying the free product as configured in Promotion - 2.
- The user can click the Add button to add the free product to the cart from the popup. Again the promotion i.e. promotion -2 will come into action as the free quantity is 2. The Special Offer(s) section will display the offer message defined in the Message for Action Conditions text box of the Rule Information' section of Promotion - 2.
- Note: If the user adds one more second free product directly to the cart, the Special Offer(s) section will not be displayed on the cart page.
- If the user clicks Avail Offer link in the Special Offer(s) section, a popup will be opened displaying the free product as configured in Promotion - 2.
- The user can click the Add button to again add the free product to cart from the popup.
- In this example, the 'Is Repetitive' option is selected as 'Yes' in both the promotions, hence, if the user adds one more main product i.e. HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop, again the Special Offer(s) section will be visible in the cart. The user can add again free products accordingly.
- Note: If the 'Is Repetitive' option is selected as 'No' in both the promotions if the user adds one more main product i.e. HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop, the Special Offer(s) section will not be displayed on the cart. So, the user cannot add the free products again.
- Up to this point, you have observed that user has manually added the free products to the cart through a popup. However, you can also configure for adding a free product (i.e. MICROMAX Q3 Dual Handsets) directly to the cart without showing the popup when 'HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop' is added to the cart as explained below:
- Click the Settings module, click (or mouse over) the Application Settings tab and select the Store Settings tab. You will be navigated to Settings > Application Settings > Store Settings page as shown in the figure.
- Navigate down to the Display Cart Showcase section and do the following configuration as displayed on the screenshot.
- So, now when the user adds 1 qty. of HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop SKU to the cart, the free products (i.e. 'MICROMAX Q3 Dual Handsets' 1 qty. + 'NOKIA BL 5J Battery' 2 qty.) will be added directly to the cart without showing the popup.
- Similarly, as the 'Is Repetitive' option is selected as 'Yes' here in both the promotions, when the user adds 1 more qty. of HP COMPAQ NX6310 RF022PA Laptop SKU to the cart, the free products (i.e. 'MICROMAX Q3 Dual Handsets' 2 qty. + 'NOKIA BL 5J Battery' 4 qty.) will be directly added to cart without showing the popup.
