texte = Keep discounts in your products database. Have the users enter on a special page or follow a link with the special info. When their cart is created you add a header that shows the possible prize. On the shoppingcart page test for quantity and if they reach it, then add it giving the user the discount. But be smart and write a test utility on the exit pages that tests for the validity of the discount and if its not valid, ie they changed their quantity, then remove the discount certificate. This way people can see the discount in their cart, but its not a guarantee that they get it. You can also have a page in the billing flow where they can key in a code and collect a discount, make the code an algorithm of the sku, or a db cross referencing to the appropriate sku.Robert Minor Director of Internet Services ------------------------------------------------------------ Cybermill Communications http://www.cybermill.com http://www.merchantmaker.comProviding Ecommerce and interactive website development and hosting services on Macintosh, Windows NT, Unix, and AS/400.> From: Jeff Logan > Reply-To: (WebCatalog Talk) > Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2000 14:35:23 > To: (WebCatalog Talk) > Subject: How can I do > > I want to be able to accept promotional codes for discounts, and be > able to offer Buy 4 get 1 free! type offers. ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
