TYP network greatly improves the gift card offerings now it has many "useful
" gift cards in the 10K for $100 level so you get the full 1 penny per point value versus the 6K for $50 level that was the prevalent in the past.

I am sure those who own a house could use the Home Depot / Lowe's / Sears gift cards on an ongoing basis.
