help with chicken

I just bought two whole chickens for Christmas dinner and am worried they will go off before Christmas (it is 4 PM on 12/22). The expiry date says 12/31 and they are sealed and refrigerated. However everything I have read says to consume within 1-2 days of purchase.

sounds like they are the vacuum sealed type packaging. you can safely use the date on the packaging. however, if you are concerned, call or go to the store where you purchased.
