Maybe give some free advice about: Etiquette?
That can't be answered until you have the film developed. Has it been in extreme temperature changes or left in a drawer somewhere? I have used expired film and never had a problem unless it was left in the glove box and gone through extreme temperature changes. I would use it for something that isn't a HUGE deal. Don't use it for something that is very important like a wedding, baptism or such event.

i would personally call walgreens or CVS or the walmart photo center and get professional advice

Yes film expires. There is an artist, or perhaps several, that use expired film as their gimmick. Here is a link to one, if these results are satisfactory to you, then go ahead and use the film.

It's probably still good, but try it on unimportant stuff. If whatever you're using it for IS important, go ahead and spend a couple bucks and buy a new roll.
