Adding product more than once should add new line item instead of increasing qty in existing line. #149

Think of this scenario. Let's say we want to offer a promotion in store where customers buy 2 and get one free. The only way to do that now would be to figure the math of the price/3 to give a discount on that line wit a quality of 3 items. It would be much easier to just have two line items. One line with a quantity of 2 and another with only one at 100% discount.

Another scenario would be as reported by jgangso in issue #141 . If we were to need more than one miscellaneous items, but at different prices. This is currently not possible.

My suggestion is that if a product is added from left column, it should always add a new line item. Whereas quantity would continue to be changeable in each line item already in the right column.

+1 for this

It will be possible to split line items in the next version of WooCommerce POS. See the beta for an example.

That's great! Do you have any timeframe for that beta to be released?
