Do Purex sheets "keep"?

[descovy]

I have a box of those Purex laundry sheets that we just used while on vacation. It will likely be another year or so before I do a vacation long enough to wash laundry.

Will they keep until then? I could use them here at home but I am fully stocked in liquid Tide/Downy for the next couple months or so.

I have bought a bunch of boxes on sale when they first came out a couple years ago or so and they are still good today. You could put them in a plastic bag to preserve longer too.

I save them just for vacations too. Used them last month while on vacay. They were fine and they were two years old.

I also have a number of them but I have had a problem with blue streaks on my clothes after using them. I now only use them for dark loads and have a number of the new pods detergent to try this year.

I also only use them at Disney, and just used some last month that were about 2 years old. I store them in ziploc bags while at home, and they have lasted just fine.

You know I have heard that before on here about the streaking. I don't know what I am doing different but I wash with them at home and have never come across that problem. I wonder if water type makes a difference, or maybe size of the load?

I used to use something exactly like the pods but by a no name company before the big companies came out with them when on vacation. The only thing I didn't like is you have to put them in a plastic container for them not to pop when under pressure.
