So, a $100 GC bought at Staples is 500 UR points. If it costs $3 to buy the card, 500 UR points used inside Chase is really 750, which equals $7.50 worth of travel? So, kind of a $4.50 gain? Am I doing this right? I'm driving, so it's kind of hard.

You have the gist of it but really it would be worth more than $7.50 when you look at award flights etc. $7.50 would be the absolute lowest you value those points at.
