It was a reasonably good deal, although I recall much better ones in the past.
The way I calculate it, I got three new Pixel 3's for about $150-200 per phone. That factors in the sales tax, the elevated cost of using Fi (vs. better plans) for 120 days, the cost of fronting $3000, and the rate at which I actually book and take Southwest flights.
In the modern era of mostly BYOD plans, that's not bad. We've been really happy with the Pixels. I like it a lot better than the Galaxies I've been using for a few years. Pixels have almost nothing preloaded that I don't actually use.
Only weird thing is that my 3 gift card emails all arrived on different dates, even though I activated all three phones within minutes of each other. (Plus a SIM in an existing iPhone.)
