  3. Click Save and Exit. The promo is active from the start date to the end date.

Let's say your customer adds the eligible product to their order, in this case, the medical scrub trousers, and also adds the matching tunic. In the Shopping Cart, before adding the promo code, the normal prices are displayed. After applying the promo code, the special price on the discount product is calculated.
Note - your customer could have also brought up the discount by adding just the correct number of eligible products, going straight to the Shopping Cart, and entering the promo code.
