That would be worth much more than a few Hyatt points...
A few Hyatt points?
Two free night certificates - 30 and 60 nights
$100 gift card - 40 nights
4 TSUs - 50, 60 nights
Your choice of 2 TSUs or 10,000 points - 70, 80, 90 and 100 nights
And IF Hyatt runs a double/triple point promo and/or a 1,000+ points per night promo in Q4, you will be absolutely swimming in Hyatt points for the indefinite future.
Which isn't to say you shouldn't compare with the alternative, but it would have to be a VERY compelling alternative...
