Once a girl who worked for ages at one large distributor for photo lab
supplies, told me to store used and virgin films inside a refrigerator
to extend validity. She told me that an expired film can be used one
year later the expiration date, if the film was kept inside a fridge all
the time since you bought it. They have bunches of films and supplies
for sale inside one of those supermarket fridges. The expired films were
for sale for 1/3 of the price, and worked pretty well, I used it a lot.
According to her, high speed films are very sensible to heat and
infra-red can flat some chemicals. If this is good for ASA400 and 1000,
it should also be good for ASA100 and ASA200.  It could be the reason
why letting your camera inside your car's glove's compartment for months
can turn all pictures with those nasty red coloration, huh?
