Why "better than nothing"?.......I can fully understand that not all people can utilize airline or hotel points but wouldn't it be a better idea to get a cash back card then which gives you a higher return than $0.01? Using points for gift cards seems to turn the stomach of most people here of FT.
But hey...I'm sure the credit card companies like those of you that redeem for gift cards and merchandise.
