New UA Partner: 1000 UA miles for drugstore.com purchase, Targeted e-mail?
Not at a bad deal if there is no minimum spend requirement as I have interpreted from this email received this afternoon:
https://secure.unitedmileageplus.com/MP1011DS.jsp?T=EML
https://secure.unitedmileageplus.com/MP1011DS.jsp?T=EML
You don't have to drive to a drugstore to get all of your health and beauty products. Order online at drugstore.com and get products from great brands like Sonicare, L'Oreal, Gillette, Norelco and more - delivered right to your door.
Best of all, you'll earn award miles with every purchase.
Here's how:
# Spend up to $100 and earn 5 award miles for every $1
# Spend more than $100 and earn 10 award miles for every $1
Earn 1,000 bonus award miles when you make your first purchase by December 31, 2010.
Earning miles is easy. Just click the link below and start shopping. The miles you earn will be automatically posted to your Mileage Plus account

There is no mention in the email of it being targeted. It's certainly worth making a $5 purchase.

No need to refresh, just go to:
Mileage Plus -> Earn miles -> and under "Shopping with our retail partners
" choose promotions
It will have the 1000 miles offer but from there you're taken to the same page as the OP without the 1000 mentioned.

Travel size toothpaste is $1.29. Total cost (including the $6 shipping), yields $0.0072/mile - worth while in my book.

I just saw that they sell gift cards from many stores and restaurants. The promo doesn't explicitly say that gift cards are excluded, but if you go to the Mileage Plus shopping portal, giftcards purchases from Drugstore.com are not eligible for reward. So, my guess is that gift cards probably won't count, but I haven't personally tried it.
