Some people use gift cards as, um, actual gifts.... so if you have a relative or friend who DOES like Pizza Hut, consider that a gifting opportunity that also benefits you!
I wish we had a thread on RN restaurants that have gift cards. Or maybe that bit of info could be added on the "Great iDine Restaurants" thread....

EDIT: I have been researching gift card possibilities to help fulfill the AA "10 dines, 10,000 miles" bonus. I have found that some restaurants use a third party provider, e.g., OpenTable, for gift cards; Colibri in San Francisco (one of my favorite RN restaurants) does this. Somehow I doubt that such a purchase would qualify for RN credit, but has anyone tried purchasing these types of gift cards? To see what I'm talking about, go here:
