Some definitely expire.  Often they print them, other times you simply have
to put the code in to find out.  I've seen it happen twice so far.

We are currently just storing them. It has been mentioned to use them as
prizes during the Summer Reading Clubs. I don't see any printed expiration
dates on the ones I looked at. I will redeem a few of the older ones to see
if they are still good.

Once we get our iPad I will put a few on there.
