It's obviously not the best value you can get, but it's still better than getting nothing at all and just having them sit there since you don't seem to be adding many points to your balance due to very low card usage.

What was the offer of 15k points instead of a statement credit that you weren't aware of? It isn't clear to me in your initial post how you could have earned those?
Yeah, i guess i could take the gift card. At least the unused pts will no longer nag me in the back of my mind.

It was Spend $500 (or $1000?) at some place, get 15000 MR pts. And i was buying there anyway.
For some reason i read it as $150.00 since all the other offers i've taken advantage of was cash back.

hm.. Ironically, taking the gift card would be the same value as the offer.
But since it's now in MR points, i want more than 1 cpp for it.
