[Vuejs]-LocalStorage.getItem() always returns null even when value exists

thanks to @YongQuan I have this solution.

methods: {
        ...mapActions(['destroyToken']),
        destroySessionIfTokenIsExpired() {
            const expiresOn = localStorage.getItem('expires_on')
            const expiresDate = moment(expiresOn).format('YYYYMMDDHHMMSS')
            if(expiresOn == null) return;
            const current = new Date(moment())
            const currentDate = moment(current).format('YYYYMMDDHHMMSS')
            if(currentDate >= expiresDate) {
                this.$store.dispatch('destroyToken')
                this.$router.push('/login')
            } else return;
        }
    },
    watch: {
        '$route': function(to, from) {
            this.destroySessionIfTokenIsExpired()
        }
    },

Instead of using a getter I just set the `localStorage.getItem(‘expires_on’) to a variable inside the method. Thanks @YongQuan
