I will be putting some fence posts up over the weekend and I have just
noticed the use by date on my cemet was the start of this month. Can I
still use it?

Buying new is not a problem but it seems a waste.

As long as it has been kept dry and doesn't have lots of hard lumps in
it, IME, yes.

OTOH, it is cheap and it is a pain digging out for and putting in fence
posts, so if you have need for a visit to the builders merchants for
other things, I would buy fresh cement.
