I want to add a shopping cart rule to my site which gives a discount every 3rd item. For example if there are 3 items for a category in the cart, provide a discount of £2, and when there are 6 items, apply discount of £4 etc. I also have to consider if a customer buys 4 or 5 they'd get the discount set on buying 3 etc. Is it possible to do this with a single rule?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, just give them the discount divided by quantity step. If you want to give $2 discount every 3 items then you would set a Fixed Amount Discount of 0.6667 ($2 / 3) then set the Discount Qty Step to 3. Every 3rd item will result in 0.6667 * 3 discount, or $2.

  • Hi Sean, I've found a problem with this. It only takes affect every 3rd addition to the cart of every single product. For example if I had 1 x 3 products from the category I've specified, I don't get the discount. I have to have 3 x 1 product (hopefully that makes sense). The offer should be any 3 items from this category? Thank you

  • I'm not by my computer atm but try changing the Discount Qty Step to 1 then add an extra subselection condition to achieve the multiple of 3. I'll try it out myself when I get back home.

  • Hi, I've tried this but I've either done it wrong or it's just not working. How do I add the condition to be a multiple of 3? Thanks

  • This solution doesn't work when you've 4 products of category 5 in your shopping cart. When you have 4 products in your shoppingcart you probably want to apply the discount for the first 3 products.
