If you are looking for long term resupply, a cold beer at a more 
reasonable price, or some of the best pizza anywhere, take another
look at Wind Gap. 
Don't get me wrong, DWG is OK, but there are some new businesses
in WG that weren't there when you came through.
About a half a mile from the trail is the P.O., a Mini Mart, The Beer
Stein, a Pizzaria and a laundromat. Go another half mile and you have
Giant Foods, chinese food, and K-Mart (also a sneaker king for you
light weight freaks). Another half mile will get ya the beer
distributor, Arby's, McDonalds, a local diner, a produce store, and
Wendy's hot & juicy.
Oh yeah, if you go west off the trail there is the Gateway Motel, 
about 200 m up the road. 

happy hiking
