Is there a proper way to store these? I bought a box a little less than a year ago. I've kept them in my pantry and now they no longer work.

I just keep them in my room, they seem to be fine. I have to admit that I shower daily so they only last 3 days then the 4th morning I have to redo them.

I haven't had mine a year, but I'm from the humid SW so I may find the same issues. They should probably be kept in an a/c cool, dry place for starters, to save the self-stick surface. I did find these ear magnets stayed on better than others I purchased.

Probably a month or longer. I've had them out for 6 weeks and they were working.Excellent solution. I keep the unopened ones in the freezer to keep them fresher.We use two in the pantry, rotate one each two weeks, so there is a fresh one onone shelf, while the other is two weeks or older.

As they are wrapped in smaller sealed portions I just kept them in the box in a cool pantry. So far, so good and it has been over 6 months. I used them yesterday and they taste as fresh as the first small package.

I keep mine in the pantry, in a Rubbermaid container. I've had it for over a year and it doesn't seem to go "bad." It seems as shelf stable as flour or cornstarch.

I have had them turn mushy and stick in the heat in the car on a summer vaca trip and then I was afraid to give them to my kids. If it is in your house you could keep them in the fridge if you don't have a/c. But I would worry about shipping like the other person mentioned. I love them for my kids though. They sell them at lots of places and you can watch for them to go on sale.

I keep them in the fridge once they are open, but I would think if you seal them well, maybe in a different container, you could keep in the pantry. Really no need to refrigerate.

I store mine in the freezer. I would imagine if they are sealed properly they will keep Indefinitley, mine have been in the freezer for a year or so and are as good as the day I put them there.

I have about 700 left I purchased before Halloween last year. Just to see if there was any degredation of the stick I took one out and activated it. They work fine after over a year, How are they stored? They have been sitting in my front closet. No special storage.

I have kept them a couple of months and they were still good. Don't know if there is a problem with time. They wouldn't last as long if kept in a hot place. I keep them in a pantry that is pretty cool.

I put them in smaller containers and than put them in the freezer. They will last until you use it all.

I've had mine in the fridge for like 2 months already, I don't use them often. They get hard, sure, but after you microwave them they're as soft as a cloud again.

I have bought new sealed ones that were dried out, so I don't think the shelf life is very long. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Hello! These really do not expire or dry out if you keep the lid very tight. We recommend storing them in a cool dark place such as a pantry. Do not let it freeze or get extremely hot as it can break down the ingredients. They will last a very long time! Hope that helps

In my house, not very long. I go through them pretty quickly. I would probably be comfortable storing them at least a year.

I didn't look at the expiration date for mine, but I imagine it would be fine if you kept them in a cool dry place. Call them and ask for the expiration date?

I had the same experience. We should probably return them to Amazon, as I believe they should remain cool until refrigerated.

I read somewhere that these are suppose to last for up to a year. Just make sure you keep them stored somewhere cool.
