It's one of the things that I like about the Chase version of "points" - you can always redeem it in their travel portal, or you have a lot of different places you can transfer them. It's quite a bit more difficult to get good value on airline (or hotel) specific points for basic stuff. They're more ideal for luxury experiences. That said, here's a list of various currencies and what this particular website values them at:
