Manufacturers should print expiry dates in their products with bold letters so that the consumers can view it clearly whether the products is in the market before date of expiry.
People should be careful specially when they buy medicines and food items.It is dangerous to take out of date medicines as will cause lot of problems.
Did you ever puchase anything with expiry dates expired and what did you do afer that?

Yes, you are very right...when you say that expiry date should be printed in bold letters on products for all to notice. I always check for expirty date, before buying a product (specially the consumable items). But I find some shopkeepers are so smart...they try to pass you products with expirty date, if U are not cautious.

yes this is vary big problem.Many times the expiry date is printed in such a small letter that one can't see.Sometimes it is not written only or is very unclear.while purchasing i always see the date of mfg & expiry.Till now i have not purchased old stocks.If i don't se the date i don't buy only.

Hello,subathra,I think i have never bought any expired products because I would have double checke the expiry date of the product to make sure there is still long way to go for it to be expired.But i do notice some of the expired products are still on the shelves for few days,when i see them,may be i will tell the staff to take them away so that other customers will not grab them accidentally.
