    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.squareup.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/222644"&gt;@Redfishbluefish&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P data-start="200" data-end="541"&gt;Thanks for reaching out! Great question, we understand you’d like to set up a discount where if a customer buys three bracelets, the total is $39.99, effectively marking down the third item to $10.01. While Square doesn’t currently support automatic "third item discounted" pricing directly, there are a couple of ways you can achieve this!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P data-start="200" data-end="541"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P data-start="543" data-end="604"&gt;One option is to use an automatic discount based on quantity. You can set up a cart-level discount that applies when a customer purchases a specific quantity:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P data-start="543" data-end="604"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;OL data-start="702" data-end="911"&gt;
&lt;LI data-start="702" data-end="756"&gt;
&lt;P data-start="705" data-end="756"&gt;Go to your Square Dashboard &amp;gt; Items &amp;gt; Discounts&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI data-start="757" data-end="848"&gt;
&lt;P data-start="760" data-end="848"&gt;Create a Buy X, Get Y discount or set a fixed amount off when 3 items are added.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI data-start="849" data-end="911"&gt;
&lt;P data-start="852" data-end="911"&gt;Apply the discount automatically when the condition is met.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/OL&gt;
&lt;P data-start="1065" data-end="1155"&gt;Another approach is to create a separate item called &lt;STRONG data-start="1118" data-end="1154"&gt;“Bracelet Bundle (3 for $39.99)”&lt;/STRONG&gt;:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P data-start="1065" data-end="1155"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL data-start="1156" data-end="1299"&gt;
&lt;LI data-start="1156" data-end="1181"&gt;
&lt;P data-start="1158" data-end="1181"&gt;Set the price to $39.99&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI data-start="1182" data-end="1299"&gt;
&lt;P data-start="1184" data-end="1299"&gt;Set inventory to decrease by 3 individual bracelets when one bundle is sold (using modifiers or inventory tracking)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P data-start="1301" data-end="1384"&gt;This gives you full control over pricing and makes it easy to advertise the bundle. Let us know if you'd like step-by-step help setting this up, we're happy to walk you through it!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>I'd like to markdown the third of the same item</title>
      <link>https://community.squareup.com/t5/Orders-Menu-Items-Catalog/I-d-like-to-markdown-the-third-of-the-same-item/m-p/803110#M199</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'd like to markdown the third item purchased. For example, 1 bracelet is 14.99 but if they buy three, it's $39.99. I'd like the third one to ring up as $10.01.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
