Gold Guest Upgrades expiration date rules

Did a search of the forum, and reviewed TC's online, and couldn't locate this answer, so am asking.
With the electronic gold certs, how is or should the expiration date be interpreted? I have some that will expire 12.31 of this year. Does that mean I have to book travel (subject to U space), then click to 'use' them by that date, or do my dates of travel have to be prior to 12.31?

In the past with the paper certs, since they had to be collected (ostensibly) by the agent at the airport, with the electronic ones, once you use them their gone. So if I'm looking at travel in early 2013, can I use the certs in my account today?
