We only buy the "manager's specials, which is the same thing. There is nothing wrong with that meat, and it's perfectly good for company, too! LOL.. Well, if there is a really good sale on something, we might buy that also.
We have one of those vacuum sealer things and it really keeps food fresh. So we repackage down to 2 serving when we get a really good deal and that keeps it good till we use it.
