The Expiration Date
EXPIRATION DATE. This was way back in 2006 when we did not have excellent cameras in our cell phones. iPhone was not launched yet. We went every year to the studio to take a family picture. The photo shoots were expensive and I always looked out for the coupons. I loved the visits to the studio and they are one of my fun filled memories. It wasn’t easy to prepare my family for the photo shoot. But what aided my planning was that the coupons had a validity date for almost a year and I could leisurely convince and prepare my family for our picture day.
