Magento - buy 1 product get another free - php

I have two categories, I am trying to make some thing like if some one buys a product from one category, customer will have a option to choose a free product from another category(like a gift).
I found some thing similar to this in admin -
Promotions -> shopping cart price rule
You can create a rule that buy X qty of one product and get Y quantity of same product free. How can I make it - get X qty of product and get Y qty of another product free. Is this feature available in magento feature or do I have to implement this. Thanks.

Buy X Get Y Free rule is not working in magento

I have create a rule under Shopping Cart Price Rules.
In Actions
Apply: Buy X Get Y Free(discount amount is Y)
Discount Amount: 1
Discount Qty step(Buy X): 2
And provide condition
If ALL of these conditions are TRUE :
Category is 5
Note: 5 is category Mobiles
The rule is created successfully. But in home page nothing is displayed about this rule and nothing happened for this rule while shopping. That means it showing the rule is not working. How can i make it working, and what is wrong with my approach. Need your help...
Note: magento version is 1.7.0.2
In the admin panel, click on Promotions -> Shopping Cart Price Rules (because we are dealing with products in the cart)
In the Conditions tab,click the little plus symbol and select 'Product Attribute Combination'.
Select the new plus symbol and select category. Click on the '...' and select the category for the products you want to have in the basket for you to get the discount.
Now click on the Actions tab, in 'Apply' have 'Percent of product price discount'. In Discount Amount, enter 100 (for 100%). In the conditions at the bottom, click on the plus symbol and select Category. Click on the '...' to select the category for the products you want to apply the 100% discount to.
This will get you 100% off all products in cat b when you have >= 1 products from cat a in the cart.
NOTE: Test this functionality as many times you can.. Test it with adding multiple quantity of main product or by adding the multiple quantity of free product.

Make magento 3rd item from cart free

I need to know if there is a way to create this in Magento:
First of all, all my products price are fixed: 9.99$.
So i want to do this: if the client bought three products, the third is free, so it pays 2 products. He can do this as many times as they want, so if you buy 6 products, there will be 2 product free, if he buys 9 products, 3 are free
Magneto supports buy x get y free promotions. Information about setting them up is available at http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/how-to-setup-buy-x-get-y-free
It's possible to do this using magento Shoping Cart Price rules.
Create a Shoping cart price rule by going to your admin panel and clicking on Promotions -> Shoping Cart Price rules.
Create a condition for your rule. There is a nice GUI to define the conditions so they will look like: If an item is FOUND in the cart with ALL of these conditions true
Define an Action, actions describe how prices are updated when the conditions of the rule are met. In your case there is an specific action called: Buy X get Y Free, which defines a quantity that the customer must purchase to receive a quantity for free. (The Discount Amount is Y.)
Complete the labels: lables appears on the order below the subtotal to identify the discount. You can enter a default label for all store views, or enter a different label for each view.
Apply the rule. Make sure you save and enable the rule, also you can define a time range when the rule is valid and number of usages.

Magento - How to create 1 Product that will essentially link to 2 others?

My questions is basically I have 2 products that can be sold separately and together.
What I want to do is take these 2 individual items, create a new product in Magento for it with a new image that will show both of them together for a combined price. When this particular item is sold then it will reduce the qty from each of the individual sku's that were created. Is this possible?
As an example,
SKU 1 - Wii Remote - $30
SKU 2 - Wii Nunchuk - $15
SKU 3 - Wii Remote + Nunhcuk - $45
So when sku 3 is sold it will reduce the qty of sku 1 and 2.
Thank you
Maybe a "bundle" could help you?
http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/creating-a-bundled-product
I don't know for sure, because I have never used Magento. I just Googled your problem.
A bundle product will do if your rules are within these:
Points to Remember
A Bundle is a “build your own” product type
Bundle Items can be Simple or Virtual products, but without Custom Variants and Options
The Price View of a Bundle can be set to display a price range or “As Low as”
The SKU and Weight of a Bundle product can be set to either “Fixed” or “Dynamic”
Items can have either a preset or user-defined quantity
Items can be shipped together or separately
Bundle product data cannot be imported into your catalog.
Means : bundle product cannot have a configurable product within.
so if your SKU1 and SKU2 are not configurable or rather just simple or virtual then you can create a bundle product and sell the way you have stated.
I don't necessarily agree with the way magento wants us to sell our "Bundles"
It lets users decide which products they want to combine, it's really similar to a "Grouped product".
To me a bundle is predetermined by the store owner, If A is Bought together with B & C, then the customer saves X amount of money... It's not up to the customer to decide what's part of the bundle.
SO I ended up creating the Bundle, adding all the products I want in the bundle as a "Multiple Select", ticked them all as "Default",
and I'm hiding the options with CSS, only showing the price and the add to cart button (Every product has it's own class in ): body.product-name #product-options-wrapper { display: none }
So of course if you have thousands of bundles then this won't work for you.
I'm really happy with this solution because 1. It updates the inventory & 2. All of the SKUs are displayed on the invoice! (For me they are also lot numbers)

Grouped Product with Fixed Sub-item Quantities

I'm working on a Magento site that has a number of simple products. There's also a "holiday package" which combines several simple products into one, at a discounted price:
6 of Item A
2 of Item B
2 of Item C
2 of Item D
The "grouped" product type is pretty close to what I need - it allows each item to keep track of it's own stock, and when it comes time to ship and estimate packages, it tries to pack the containers using the weight/volume of each individual item. (This shipping aspect is very important, as we need to pack the boxes as efficiently as possible - using a simple product with an estimated size for all items may not work).
However, we do not want the customer to be able to choose the quantity of each item. The customer should instead be asked to choose how many holiday packages they would like.
Is a grouped product the best approach? Is there a better way to handle this?
In Magento 1.5.1, the best solution should be the bundle product. There, you can define a price, a quantity for each item in the backend. You can block the user to change the quantity for these items, not for the bundle product (you could too if you want but it's not your need here).
We do like that for some of our product. Check the screenshot to see an example of configuration
