Am I wrong for thinking that it’s lousy and cheap to not cash out PTO on a final check?

Been managing a movie theater for about a year now, put in my two weeks, and am down to my last two days. I have about 50 hours of PTO saved up and was relying on that money for my last check. BUT I have just found out that they “don’t honor unused PTO, according to the handbook” I am frustrated. This feels like such a cheap move, and now I’m wondering if I should not show up for my last weekend shifts to try and use up my PTO. I know it isn’t ILLEGAL to not pay out PTO, but it definitely feels frowned upon and cheap.
