MS newbie here - quick question

Hello everyone,
So I went my local CVS with my newly received chase ink card (the 70k offer) and I went to buy four one vanilla visa debit gift cards. I read that it wouldn't work but I tried anyway and it worked. $2000 for four cards.

So I the. Head to Walmart to get some money orders and when I ask for a $1000 money order, the lady then says she will no let me purchase with a gift card. I told her it was a debit but she says I'm not supposed to do that.

I try another wal mart and the charge kept coming up as a credit even after I selected debit > entered a pin etc.

So now I have these four cards...what's the best next move for me?

I applied for an amex serve and it'll arrive within a few days. Can't I pay off my chase ink via my amex serve?

If so then I can load money in it from my chase ink or do the family dollar scenario.

Thanks in advance.
