How do they work?
The repeating discount promotion is no trickier to set up than a normal product discount promo. The only difference is the ability to specify the number of days the repeat code is valid for.
The second promo code will remain is valid until either the main promotion either expires, or the nominated specified number of days since first use has passed.
Step-by-step guide

When they use the promo code, they get emailed a new promo code for the same discount on the same products, but this time with no minimum buy.
