Holiday sale BOGO half off

Recommended Posts

OK, so I have Online Gift Cards installed. At my brick & mortar store, we always run a holiday sale on GCs, buy one get one X% off, or X% off any GC, that sort of thing. For the Online GCs, I wanted to also offer a BOGO half off deal, and I'm having trouble find a contrib that will do it as I want. I spent this morning installing the 2gether discount package, only to find that it won't let me set up more than one special "bundle" with any given product. So, for example, I want anyone who buys a $100 GC to be able to get another GC of $100, $75, or $50 at 50% off with that purchase. Same if they buy a $75 GC, they should be able to get another $75 or $50 GC half off, and so forth. 2gether ain't doin' it. I've looked at Quantity Price Breaks or some such, and I know there are a couple others, just hoping maybe someone can save me a little time and hassle here by suggesting something they've used to do this, while I remove the 2gether thing and continue to search the forums. I'd really like to do this sale, but I don't want to have to add another 30 "special" products, or something like that to make it happen. I could do it "manually" too, but that seems so 1994. <_< TIA

One: people are not wearing enough hats. Two: matter is energy. In the universe, there are many energy fields which we cannot normally perceive. Some energies have a spiritual source which act upon a person's soul. However, this soul does not exist ab initio, as orthodox Christianity teaches. It has to be brought into existence by a process of guided self-observation. However, this is rarely achieved, owing to man's unique ability to be distracted from spiritual matters by everyday trivia.

Thanks for responding, Geoffrey. I looked at the Get 1 Free contrib, as well as Dangling Carrot, Bundled Products, and others. None of them will do what I wish to do, and I'm nowhere near being able to modify the coding to bend them to my will. By the time I could code it, the holidays will be in the past. LOL For instance, Dangling Carrot allows only ONE free (or discounted) item in the cart per order. So, if someone wanted to get say, 6 gift cards from my store, they'd pay full price for 5, rather than getting 3 at discount for 3 at regular price. Or, they could place 3 separate orders, which nobody would be willing to do other than my Mom, maybe. Get 1 Free adds the "free" item to the cart automatically, which wouldn't work in my case, as I need the customer to be able to choose among several items they want at a discount. At my "real" store, it's as simple as putting up signs and ringing up the GCs with the discount. Given the popularity of GCs as holiday gifts and BOGO sales in general, I'm just surprised that there's not already an add-on that will do this, or an easy way to tweak an existing add-on to do it. I'm going thru google search now, and still not finding any answers. I'll keep looking (and feeling less-than-brilliant), and thanks again.
