I have generally bought fresh yearly and give away any I have on hand at that time. I guess I was being a bit profligate or maybe overly cautious.
If you look on the box, Devcon has a best before date right on it, and that is for industrial applications. It is WAY more than a year. Yes, you have been spending more than you need to changing it annually.
