Does it mean that if I call them on 23 December, they will tell me that this offer is already expired and I should have called them one day sooner or this offer is still valid on 23 December?

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

In the context given, the seller should honor the offer if the customer shows up on the last day (i.e. December 23).
It is better to take the offer before the 23rd of December.

: This is simply not the case: you don't need to say "inclusive".

If it is a legal document, "inclusive" is a must.

: by analogy with "this offer is valid until 2pm" (=> from 2.00pm it's no longer valid), this offer should expire at the beginning of the day i.e. @00.00.00 not [email protected], BUT maths and the general population are not good friends ...
