But the 12K I can use at any time.
Yes, the right room at the right time is ideal! I was lucky enough to hold onto them to use for Christmastime in Manhattan last year. BW Herald Square had rooms going for around $300+ US per night, and I had enough points from 2 card churns for 3 nights. Easily worth $1500 CAD. Score!
