Ain't that the truth. I was in Wally World on July 1 and one battery had a sticker 7/15. Wow, built, shipped, delivered and on the shelf by 2pm of the same day. :R

Those bright stickers are inventory control. Have seen batteries with multiple dates. Maybe they got a top charge at best and back on the shelf. Actual build is more likely embossed in the plastic or covered by the label.
