to do that with the GIMP you don't need to scale it - just SAVE AS (and JPEG) under the file menu. Whether you change the file name or not, a sub-requester opens up with a QUALITY meter on top, as well as a section of ADVANCED OPTIONS. Simply by lowering the quality from 100% the file size will be greatly reduced.
Just tried this, and a 925k photo was reduced in size to 132.5k by reducing the Quality setting to 50%. Side by side in the GIMP I cannot tell the two images apart at normal viewing.
