At first I thought this might be tied to my Giant Rewards account but I experience the same thing even if I don't provide this so the only thing that might be the case is that they track amount of Vanillas purchased on a CC a day.
Its not at Giants end, they would happily sell you more VGC's but not issue the reward points.
Its probably CC algorithm. Think about it, Mind normally spends $100 a few of times a week at Giant. This fits the model for typical transactions from other people at Giant. Then out of the blue Mind spends $2k at Giant, followed by another $2k an hour later at another Giant. Computer suspects something is up and declines the transaction.
