Cart Price Rule for each 2 products purchased in specific category get 25% off

[keystoneke3419]

I'm trying to get a cart price rule to work and I think I'm about 90% of the way there but can't quite figure out what I'm missing.

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish. 

Purchase any 2 from category X get 25% off both. Sale would repeat for every quantity of 2 (2,4,6,etc).  If 3 products from category X are in the cart, the sale would apply to the 1st 2 but not the 3rd item, until a 4th item was added. I can make the sale work if there are 2 or more items but it applies it to every quantity greater than 2 (so items 2,3,4,5,etc).  I'm not sure how to make it only apply to every 2 items. 

I've tried adding 2 in the Discount Qty Step but that seems to force the quantity to be based on the SKU (line item total) not the category total.  So if I have 1 SKU #1 and 1 SKU#2 the discount does not apply but if I have 2 SKU#1 then it does apply, which is not how I want it.

I have also tried changing the conditions to if total quantity is one of 2,4,6,8,etc however if there ends up being an odd number in the cart the discount is removed completely from the even quantity items.  So instead of item 1 - 4 being discounted and the 5th not, there is no discount applied at all.

Any ideas how to set this up?

Thanks.

To apply a 25% discount for every 2 products from a specific category in Magento, go to > Promotions > Cart Price Rules and create a new rule. Set the Conditions to include the category and choose Percent of product price discount (25%) under Actions. In Discount Qty Step ( X), enter 2 to ensure the discount applies only to every pair of items (2, 4, 6, etc.). Save the rule, and it should work as expected. If Magento doesn't handle this correctly, consider using a special promotions extension for more advanced discount rules.

I tried your set up as stated in my original post, putting a 2 in the Discount Qty Step requires that every 2 items are the same SKU, it doesn't work for 2 different items from the same category even if that is what my conditions are set as.
