Redeeming party points

Thanks for the response!
Like I thought - semi-crap. But it sounds like its the better thing to use the points for. I think I give it a shot.

They are too cheap to give away higher quality stuff. Lets say you got $200 bonus credits to shop for. They have some product "worth" $200, in reality they bought it for like $50-100. There is a reason they do not want you to have the cash instead of the pruduct. It costs alot for them to give away(or more back) cash than some cheaply products "worth" the amount you got. Same thing with all places that "pays" in products not in cash.

Where I live there is often ads like "Sign up for us [some gas company] and win $1000 worth of gas" but in reality that $1000 of gas cost them almost nothing.
