It's sad that you, not just you actually, that people in general, have viewed buying half decent bits of meat from a shop that sepcialises in meat, as a luxury. It should be bog standard. Supermarkets have managed to educate people that hanging a piece of meat for 15 days is somehow special, when it's more like the absolute minimum you should ever reasonably expect.
