I replaced my bands years ago. I purchased with (here in the US)

And, the best of friends that she is, she sent me some, too. And they
did fit/work to perfection (I tested). I then left them in the original
(paper) envelope, therefore they're now dust, like the original ones.
OTOH, the orthodontal rubber bands that I scrounged off my son's doctor
17 yrs ago (twice as long at least as I've had the bands from Carolyn),
and which I use to carry two bobbins as one when replacing a thread,
are still in perfectly snappy shape. The lesson there is: keep your
bands in a tightly sealed (one of the zip-lock kind) plastic pouch, and
in a dark place...
