Target Photo, through their Kodak Gallery, offers a free 11 oz photo mug and 20 free 4x6 prints for new members. Shipping is $5.50. Offer must be redeemed within 60 days of the date of your registration.
Note, you get $12.99 towards the cost of the mug. If the mug you pick costs more than $12.99 then you will have to pay the difference.
It seems like you should be able to upgrade your mug to any size using one of these codes: SWEETRETURN, TRYUS4, WELCOME20. Try them and let me know in the comments which code worked for you.
Offer expires January 28, 2008. To redeem click here to join Target Photo. Official promotion rules can be found here.

This is not exactly online shopping (which I mostly write about) yet a very useful hack if you happen to go to your local Target store for a discount shopping raid.
You know how all prices end with 9’s to fool us to believe they are less than what they really are? Here is a simple rule that will help you figure out when it is the time to buy a discounted item at Target.
Full prices end in 9. Every time Target discounts, the final digit of the price drops. The lowest the final digit will go is 4. If you see something you want and the price ends in 4, buy it. You won’t get it for less.
Now I only wish someone confirms this tip before I go on a shopping spree! :-)
