Lol. I've got stuff on the floor in every room but I have tidy cupboards and drawers. Throwing out a heap of shit. I found napisan that expired in 2014. Everytime I mark something off my list I add another 2 things to it. I feel ya. 💜

The active ingredient degrades slowly over time. Nothing bad will happen if it’s used, it just won’t be effective in whitening clothes. So the manufacturer puts an expiry date, mostly so people don’t complain ‘it didn’t work’

The expiry date also 'helps' people to buy the product more often.
