One way.

Assuming they can be used into norther South America, Central America or the Caribbean - which is quite possible - they'd be worth a bit more. And they aren't taking much away in exchange for them. Even if you only value them at 15K points each that would be $150ish. I think trading that for a couple $6 drinks is probably a bad investment decision.

Not gonna happen.
