Because fuel blends change for summer and winter, it's a good idea to change it over seasonally, in early May and late September, just pour your stored gas into the car and refill the cans from the pump. Having winter gas during winter means easier starting, and having summer gas during summer means the cans bulge less because of the lower vapor pressure.
This means you're only storing fuel for a max of 8 months, and stabilizer is optional.
It won't hurt anything, though, and of course if you forget a changeover, it's nice insurance to have the stabilizer in there so the stuff doesn't clog your injectors next year when you remember.

I have multiple 2 cycle machines for yard work and a power washer. I put stable in gas and run higher octane 93. Still doesn't stop the small carbs from gunking up regardless. 10% Ethanol is terrible for carb passages. Think projectfarm did a good video on fuel stabilizer
