    <title>thread setting a free item promo in Customer Engagement</title>
    <link>https://community.squareup.com/t5/Customer-Engagement/setting-a-free-item-promo/m-p/807411#M28</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I would like to set up a promo that allows customers to pick one free item from a select list of items, when the order particular items from a select list. I can make a list of the free product options but I don't see an option to set up a list of items they must purchase to receive the free item.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.squareup.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/43339"&gt;@Dh222&lt;/a&gt;.. Are you using the automatic discounts feature when trying to set this up? &amp;nbsp;If not, that is exactly where you should be. &amp;nbsp;The general steps (in your web dashboard) for doing what you want are:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Create a new discount, which will have a type of percentage and an amount of 100%.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Turn on "discount rules" in the Automatic Discount section.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;In the popup select "quantity" (not "item or category" as you probably tried to do.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;In the section "When customer purchases any 1 item from," choose the items that will trigger the free item, being sure to make the quantity 1.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Click the "Add diccount rule" button&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Make the discount rule "buy one, get one"&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Now create your list of potential free items, with quantity of 1&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;In the "Apply automatic discount" section, decide where this discount will apply. &amp;nbsp;You can choose to apply on your POS and/or your online store&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;You can also set other restrictions as applicable.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;Save the discount and test it out. &amp;nbsp;It should work exactly as you want. &amp;nbsp; Let me know if you have any other questions.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
