There is good episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver on Timeshares...

That video says it all. I have been to timeshare presentations which the last one ended with me offending the salesman by doing a math calculation. I have decided since then, over 10 years ago, to not attend these presentations. I don’t care what the gift it, it is an unpleasant situation where at best it makes you angry and at worst you fall for the scam and then can’t get out. Also consider that sometimes you even get scammed on the gift conditions and value unless you carefully read and understand the fine print.

If I were you, I would use the points and stay clear of this scam industry.
