May be I'm missing something (because I don't understand the downvotes), but do you guys see good redemption offers from Chase? If so, I will keep an eye out..

Chase points are far more valuable transferred to partners then gc redemption in general. Both in value and flexibility. The bulk of mine go to Hyatt but ymmv. SWA gc can frequently be bought at costco for a 15% discount without need to use points.

Definitely agree, but should be caveated that you need a premium card to be able to transfer. Not an option for Freedom holders.

Thanks! Got some REI gc. Had the discount on my Chase Freedom but not Chase Ink.

Do you know when the discount ends?

Using pay yourself back with 25% discount is the way to go. Book hotel for 10x points and then redeem utility/internet bills at 25% has been my routine.

I didn't think about that, but no she just happens to have the travel card and I have the spending card. I don't think Sapphire is really "premium" but I'm going to try to use it for travel deals. We just got it a couple months ago.

The PYB categories are complete crap on all cards except CSR, which has a $550 AF. Yeah, the net fee is $250 with the travel credit, but people looking to burn URs for GCs most likely aren't traveling much in the first place.
