b) the funds will have been taken from the swiped cards, and you need to wait about a week to get the funds back
c) and the $2500 probably counts against your 24 hour rolling limit.
So: use higher-denomination AGC, or split in $2,500 purchases, or go to a CVS which doesn't have these policies (if there are any!)
I've determined that the limit of swipes is 7 at CVS, at least around here. So 5 $500 AGCs plus a last credit card to pay the fees would work.
