There's a thread at iPodbank called How to get free songs on iTunes!. Seems like Paper Mate is giving away free iTunes codes.

I tried it earlier and the code they sent to me had already been used.

Happened me, too. I got 3 codes sent in all and only 2 of the 3 worked.

Meh… I can not get the songs because my AIM profile is outside the USA… and I have ten codes to use. I have created a new AIM profile but it didn't help.

9 out of 15 not bad! Had to make another account with a US address though as in the UK here.

I'm 5 for 8 right now.
I must say that this is APPALLING! How *dare* they issue used codes when I'm taking valuable time from my normal activities to repeatedly take advantage of their lack of planning in this promotion! If I had another e-mail address I'd write in to complain.

Oh yeah... if you're sick of filling out the whole form, try hitting the back button on your browser and change just the e-mail address. The code should be all set to go so just hit enter! Working for me.

One guy on ipodbank.com was up to 186 last night.

EDIT: Now that trick is only working some of the time. They really need to straighten this sort of stuff out.

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.

Heh.

Got it to work, but slooooooow. My guess is the their servers are getting hammered right now.
Unfortunately the code didn't work in the Canadian store. Bummer.

why don't you just download all your music for free from a P2P like everyone else?

Server seems to have come to a total standstill now. This will be interesting to watch. I am pretty sure that they didn't except this outcome.
