Well, duh, that's why they had my e-mail on their list, and there was no fine print about the offer being only for new subscribers.

Long story short, I contacted them and complained about false advertising, and they gave me two credits without my having to reactivate my membership. They said it was a marketing mistake that I was getting those e-mails. Whatever. I used the two credits; I haven't gotten any promotional e-mails since.

Your mileage may vary.
I don't know that failure to mention something like that in the fine print would legally qualify as "false advertising," but it was probably worth it to them to give you two credits just to get rid of you. Congrats on getting the two credits!
