No. This was purchased because someone thought it was a “great deal”. They will use about a quarter of the bottle before it expires and then just throw the rest out.

Everyone I know who buys these will definitely use them before they expire. Most common reasons seem to be back pain and headaches.

Feel bad for the sucker who sees this and only buys one.

They won’t be thrown out, who are you kidding?
