How to implement and apply Buy X And Get Y another product of same category free in the shopping cart price rules in magento.

  • I have tried to implement it by adding own code but that was not correct by logic somewhat then I have tried to add an extension from the website link but that too has limitation that we have to manually everytime add the rule for each product on whom we want to apply this offer.we can not directly apply the rule for the whole category in one attempt.

There is no "Buy X get Y" rule for different X and Y in the Magento default package. The rule we have can only discount some qty of the SAME products. Like if we get 10 t-shirts we can receive 11-th for free. But there is NO WAY to receive a belt instead of t-shirt.

The options are either create a custom module or select some ready to use from the magento connect.

If you want to create your own, here some tips based on "Special Promotions" plugin:

  1. add a new field to be able to set "X" condition
  2. listen for salesrule_validator_process event and check if the current item is X
  3. if it is X then loop through $address->getAllItems() and find Y, set discount

    We tried the Special Promotions Pro from Amasty and it really works well for our needs and for this kind of instances. Thank you for the suggestion.

I was able to simulate the desired behaviour by doing this: (For buy 3 of product X, get 1 product Y free)

Conditions: - Total quantity of SKU X is greater or equal to 3

Actions: - Apply: Discount (percentage of product price) - Percentage = 100 - Maximum Qty Discount is Applied To: 1 - Apply rule to has condition: SKU = Y

This would work for buy 2 X, get Y free

Unfortunately it does not work for 6 items, get 2 free. That could be done by an extra rule though with a higher prio that checks for 6 / 2

Edit: This does not work when you have variants of SKU Y. If customer buys 3 X and 2 variants of Y, he gets both of Y for free.

To remedy the last problem, I changed the rule to give a fixed amount (product Y price) on the whole shopping cart. That worked OK for us.

  • Thank you for your answer. I used a similar approach to yours and applied 33.33% off when buying 2 or more items, this makes the third item free. Commented Jun 25, 2021 at 19:56
  • One year later, I'm visiting the same thread looking for the same answer. The issue is that having 33.33% is it gets applied for items over the discount quantity. Commented Mar 5, 2022 at 21:59

Does default Magento not support buy x and get y different size discounted?

  • So far based on my understanding, it appears to NOT support such discount. Commented Mar 5, 2022 at 22:43
