# Provide tag along items with purchase

Tag along items can be:

* **Items that are a gift with the purchase of a promotional item:** One of the ways that manufacturers and stores encourage customers to purchase specific products is to offer a free gift when they purchase a promotional item. For example, a store that sells pet food may enter into an arrangement with a manufacturer to give away a stuffed toy whenever a customer buys a large bag of their premium dry food. The store must enter the stuffed toy as a tag along item and then assign it to all of the manufacturer's large bags of premium dry food.
* **Items that must or should be sold with another item:** An example might be a specific type of memory card or battery that is required to operate a digital camera. The memory card and battery are not included with the purchase of the camera but are required for its operation. The store can sell the memory card and battery on their own, or as tag along items for the digital camera. You might also have to set up the battery as a tag along item if both the camera and the battery are serialized items and you need to record the serial numbers of each item separately.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/store-manager/manage-items/standard-items/providing-gift-with-purchase.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
