Update: My grocery store's 'manager's special' meat is just the stuff expiring tomorrow
Found out from a stocker that the 50% off stickers mean it's literally a 24-hour countdown. Anyone else have stores that do this?

But do you ever worry the quality is already going downhill by that point?

Actually that's how it's SUPPOSED to work. Manager's special stickers are for items that need to sell fast. It's a normal grocery store practice, not a secret trick. The date is still right there on the package for you to check. You're just getting a clear discount for buying something you need to use or freeze soon. It's a good deal if you plan for it.
