How do i do a discount for multiple item purchases?

I got an email from Bonanza today that included [URL removed]

“As a Bonanza seller, you can ride that trend by offering discounts and coupons to drive more sales. Choose from any (or all) of these proven [URL removed]
Item Price [URL removed] Give shoppers a price break when they add more items to their cart.”

However, all I can find on the discount page is how to give a discount for over a certain dollar amount not over a certain number of items. Where do I find this option as described in the Bonanza email? I’m a Gold member, if that matters.

Thank you.

I can only see how to mark down items like a sale, not by how many a customer buys. Am I missing something on the batch edit page?

As far as I know you can’t just discount for multiple items other than offering a shipping discount. From that same coupons and discounts page there’s a check box to offer combined shipping discounts. You can specify a discount percentage or dollar amount on items after the first one. Alternatively you can charge a fixed dollar amount for subsequent items.

I appreciate the percentage discount on larger purchases, but I agree with you, I want the larger purchase to be multiple items, not just one item that happened to be a higher value.

So you’re saying that it is not possible? I guess I’m misunderstanding when the say, "Give shoppers a price break when they add more items to their cart.”

Offer a discount for each item after the first when calculating shipping cost…I am assuming this is what they mean, which for combined shipping discount, but there is not one on actual # of items purchased.

If that is the case, ccmom, it is a deceptive email because it includes that as a separate option.

If that is the case, ccmom, then it is a deceptive email because it includes that as a separate option. Next comment is the three options listed.

Item Price [URL removed] Give shoppers a price break when they add more items to their cart. Combined Shipping [URL removed] Offer to reduce shipping costs when they purchase several items together. Booth [URL removed] Shoppers can be timid. Coupons help turn window shoppers, into buyers.

Item price discount is the first option under discounts and coupons…the combined item total is discounted when a certain amount is reached (wording may not be the best, but that is the option..based on $total not #items total)

There are 3 options listed…Item Price Discount (based on total $): Combined shipping [URL removed] and coupon discount
