Best way to spend AmEx Membership Rewards points?

I have just over 50000 amex membership rewards points I want to spend. I want to get the most for my points. I dony really need to make any big purchases soon. I was thinking about the amex giftcard, but the only thing is that for 50k points you only get a $250 gc. Most other gc are 50k points for $500. Now home depot gift cards are selling online for like 87%, so should I get a $500 home depot gift card and sell it online for $435? Has anyone tried that before? If you can think of a way to get more than $435 let me know. Thanks!

    and that is why people like cash back cards.

    plan and simple 1% back into your account.

    just cash out, and get another card that gives you 1% cash back and be done.
