Although expiration date plays an important role in consumption decision, consumers pay not much attention to it. As such, to solve this problem, the current research examined the influence of self-regulatory resource on willingness to use of product that past its expiration date by resource depletion. The result revealed that compared with no resource depletion condition, participants in resource depletion condition showed less willingness to use the product that past its expiration date. However, no difference was found between resource depletion and no depletion condition in product with valid expiration date. Thus, this research suggests, in consumers' health perspective, an potential implication of emphasizing the importance of expiration date by depleting cognitive resources.
