i've had a block of butter in the freezer for a couple months that i forgot about. how long is it good for?
 
When butter goes on sale, I load up & store it in the freezer. I think it will last for a long time like Jenny said. I've never had a problem with it. I've never noticed the difference between butter that I just bought & put in the fridge & butter that was frozen.

I regularly buy butter in bulk and freeze it. I have not noticed a difference vs. recently bought unfrozen butter.
 
I rarely find butter on sale, but like Corrine, when it goes on sale I like to toss a few blocks into the freezer. I think that the longest I've ever had it in there was 5 or 6 months, after which is deforsted and preformed as well as had it just been purchased. (I always wrap it in plastic wrap - over the foil - and then place it into a zip-lock bag before freezing.)
