I do the same as Cathy. Typically, I don't get many requests for GC at shows. Many people call me the day of the wedding or whatever event they need the GC for & I just print the one that I have made.
To answer your question....I don't think that they do. A guest at a recent show asked me if they did expire. She had one from 2 1/2 years ago. I told her to try it & see!
She did & it worked just fine.
