All batteries have a finite shelf life. A *great* shelf life for a battery is 5 years. Most of the older battery technologies wouldn't come close to lasting 5 years on the shelf. Statements like "these batteries will last 10 years on the shelf" are optimistic, for pretty much any battery made, although Lithium batteries can last that long (to about 70% of their fresh capacity). Frankly, at the price these batteries are, I buy them and use what I need. If in 2017 or 2018 I don't find I am getting good service from them, I will buy more for less money and be happy about it - just my opinion. The do say "Use by 2023" on the back label of the package. Depending on the Storage temperature your mileage may vary. Do not freeze batteries, but keeping them cold can extend shelf life. Also, do not use cold - warm them first, as battery efficiency is drastically reduced at lower temperatures. So batteries stored in the refrigerator should be warmed to room temperature (NEVER in an oven) gradually before being put into service.

I didn't check for an expiration date. Sorry. My last order is still good and it was placed 3 months ago. My most recent order was placed a month ago so I wouldn't run out.

There are numbers on the bottom but there is no expiration date. This is my 2nd transaction buying this combo and I love it!

What I got had almost two years to go till expiry date. It will not do u good to ask those who bought it already, u need to somehow as Amazon about the current stock they have, it keeps changing.

Received mine today, Jan 22, 2015. Expires Nov 2015. Seems like the seller amateurly selects first available instead of rotating stock to ensure first in - first out.

I would have no idea because whatever information I put in my review pertained to my previous purchase and I have not purchased the item since. I do know, however, that folks don't need to get too excited about some of these dates as long as the product is not opened. I wouldn't buy supplements that expired years ago (because they lose their potency). To find out the current expiration date on this item being sold, please contact the seller or Amazon and you will get a reply.

On the package it has a "Use by date," which to some may suggest an expiration date. Hope this helps.

Every time my order arrives, the expiration date or "Best By" date was always 12 to 14 months out. The last batch I ordered on October had a Best By date of 12 04 2014. Hope this helps.

It woudl be safe to presume that they would ship non-expired product. The expiration date is likely from the original listing.

A best by date is on the bottom of the can. The date on my current batch is Jan. 2017

On the bottom of the package it is marked "Best By 02 0215". Doesn't mean it "expires" then; they are Best before that date. If fed only one a day they won't last that long.

Yes. We bought us in 2013 and the expiration date is 2018. But I think that sometimes expiration dates are a inventory control type of system.

Mine had a 'best if used by' date on it. It was about 11 months out from the date when purchased. It seemed fine for many more months after that though.

Today is Feb 2014, If lot expired on Dec 31, 2013 is this still a good buy?

It had a "best if used by" date that was over a year out. You will probably have to contact the company to get any additional info beyond that.

I would not know the expiration of what you are buying. The seller would be happy to give you that information. I have ordered this several times and have always had over a year's expiration date. No way for it to expire while using it.
