For anyone selling items with expiration dates (skincare, makeup, food), what’s your strategy when something doesn’t sell in time?
And how are you handling it on your books?

Heyy Danielle!
I try to go through my health & beauty items every 90 days or so. That way if I have something expiring in the next 90 days I can push those items more to be sold by offering a %off discount or including as a free items if purchases are made over a certain amount.
You should definitely keep track of any expiration dates. I always try to do a sale on them before they expire. Also some items still sell after they are expired. As long as you note it in your listing you are covered.
I don't have any inventory at the moment with expiration dates, but would love to hear everyone's ideas on how to deal with this. Thanks!
