   Can I do a promotion that says “Buy This, Get That Free” or “Buy This, Get Any of Those Free”, etc.? 

Not yet. Most of the logic and underlying source code is actually already
 in ProductCart v4. However, during final testing we decided to pull the
 feature out because there were some issues with properly handling 
things such as quantity discounts, conflicting promotions, etc. The same
 is true with supporting promotions at the category level. We will 
return to these features soon, do more development, resolve open issues,
 and introduce them in future releases

This is from the wiki on Promotions in version 4.5.  I would like to chime in that I hope Early Impact will support promotions at the category level soon.  We want to offer a promotion of "buy 10 items from this category and get a free gift".  Please post if you would like this feature added.

	I'd like to chime in with Cindy here. I know it won't make it into 4.7, but an option for meeting a condition and then qualify for a freebie or other discount is an excellent feature I've seen demand for and other peer carts have. In fact, we're in the midst of getting a PC store of our own launched soon and this sort of thing fits exactly with what we'd ideally do in our marketing plan. Just pitching in 2 more cents worth of fuel on the spark (to mix as many metaphors as I can think of, right?)
