I got all the answers.

1. The maximum number of bars that cannot be obtained is 47.
2. The number of interger amounts of bars that one cannot buy is 24.
3. If a and b are coprime positive integers then the maximum number of bars that cannot be bought is (a*b-a-b) bars.  Otherwise, an arbitrarily large number of bars cannot be bought.
