I've aimed for the super high value tickets, like CAD$17,000 for YVR-SEA-LHR-RUH-LHR-YVR, in First class, on BA (125,000 CP pts.) Anyway, here's the summary:

April 97 - August 99, 10 round trips
2 x AA 75,000 points, for $8400
3 x BA 325,000 points, for $41,600
5 x CP 121,000 points, for $13,000

521,000 points spent, CAD$63,000 (+taxes) saved.

This looks about like 12.1c ( + taxes) of value received, for each point spent.
