Creating a buy one, get one deal

A buy one, get one is a deal where customers buy an item or items, and receive a discount on a different item or items. The classic buy one, get one deal is to offer customers a free item when they buy a more expensive one. You don't have to set up your deal up like that though — you can require any number of purchases, and offer a discount on any number of items.

1. In Head Office or Cinema Manager, go to Maintenance > Promotions and Discounts.
2. Click Create.
3. Set the Type to Deal.
4. Set the Deal Type to Buy One Get One.
5. Go to Items.
6. Set up the first list for your deal.

   Tip: To set up a buy one get one deal, use a maximum and minimum of 1.

7. Set up the second list for your deal.

   Note: If there are multiple items that can be discounted, customers receive a discount on the most expensive eligible item. For example, you could set up a buy one get one deal. If a customer buys one $30, one $20, and one $10 item from your deal, they'll receive a discount on the $20 item. If the $20 item was free, the customer would pay $40 total.

8. (optional) Set up more lists as needed.
