The benefits of mailing lists

I get a lot of stupid spam. But unlike the Viagra and sexy web cam crap, I do look forward to the emails I get from retailers. For instance, I recently received an amazing deal from Sears Portrait Studio. Until December 20th, they're offering a free portrait package that comes with:

• 1 10"x13"
• 1 5"x7"
• 4 wallets

For a freebie, daaaaaamn, that's pretty good! But it's only good if you print the email coupon and hand it over to the studio. Yesterday, my husband, daughter and I had our second family portrait taken with this offer. Bonus? It saved about $60 in our wallets for Christmas shopping.

So ... sometimes it pays to be on an email list. You never know what you'll receive in savings!

Free Sears Portrait

Last year, I won free Sears portraits for a year at the Baby Time Show (where I also got a load of other freebies!). So when my freebies expired, I was a little bummed ... until this offer came along! Here's a promotion Sears is offering for a free 10x10. Enjoy!

P.S. It expires on June 30, 2012.
