My understanding on the Straight Talk plans is that you can buy overlapping data. If you start out with a 60 day card of 7GB and use it up before the 60 days are up... you either wait until the start of the next 60 day cycle or you buy a 30 day card (of whatever amount you want) to keep you connected.

You are correct. It is only required that you acquire more data before the lapse of the day limit for the previous data plan. If you expire the data you purchased all you need to do is buy another data plan. You can buy 60 day data plans as well as the 30 day plan previously mentioned. When you apply the new data plan anything you have left on the old plan will be deleted and the new plan will determine the service period. If you have data left on the old plan it will be deleted as well as the days left in the old plan. There is no rollover data/days.

You can set up auto-fill that will add a new plan at the end of the service date of the current plan. I have the ST home phone and I have it set for auto-fill but I will not setup auto-fill for my ST hotspot. I want the flexibility to add more data during the current plan service period if needed.

I know with my ST home phone I let it lapse when I get back to WV from wintering in the south. I have to reactivate it when I get ready to head south again and all that happens is that I get assigned a new number. The ST hotspot says to not let it expire so I do not know what the consequences would be for letting it lapse.
