Last year I did have an odd number of points which I used for a small amount of free play. My major purchase at the GGWU is always Shell gas cards for me plus everything that is on my wife's wish list. We buy a lot of gift cards for holiday gifts and usually silver charm bracelets from David Yurman that my wife likes to give as gifts to her nieces.

As we get closer, I would like to know what the exchange rate is for free play vs the gas cards.
Yeah I would also love to know the rate for the free play. If the gas cards are a better rate, I will definitely take that over the free play, though I do find gas cards to be a pain in the ass because you're forced to go to a particular station.

The transferring of points is a hidden benefit. I'm really surprised they allow it. Hopefully they won't do away with it in 2013. Almost nobody there knew that you could do it (I'm talking about customers, not employees). I went around and told as many people as I could. I hated seeing Caesar's just keep everyone's hard-earned excess points!
