    Hi Seyi,
    I've looked all over the forums but I didn't find anything to answer my question. Here's what I'm trying to do. I have two items, A & B. I want to be able to offer a buy one get one of the identical item. So, if someone buys item A they get another identical item A free. The same thing for B. Buy a B item get an identical B item free. This is what I've tried doing but it's wrong.

    Set up an X & Y coupon and added both items A & B in the X & Y. I got the settings from here https://awodev.com/blog/buy-x-get-y-joomla-guide

    What's happening is that if a visitor puts both A & B items in their cart, increases the amount to 2 items each to get the discount, the coupon only recognizes the First Found Match and keeps discounting that. Same thing if I reduce each item to 1 each. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that I use the very latest versions of Joomla/Virtuemart and AwoCoupon.

    Hello,

    In the coupon configuration, please check the box 'Dont mix products':

    Man, I can't believe it was that simple. Eeesh! Thank you very much!

    On a sidenote, it was very clever to include an automatic discount based on product/quantity because the less people have to do the less likely they are to abandon their cart. And then there are the ones who have minimum online skills and get easily confused. This takes care of both issues. Well done!
