I always use three days as the rule, but here's what I found:
THE 3 C's OF SAFE MEAT HANDLING

KEEP IT COLD

In the hot summer months, make your meat selection last to ensure that the meat stays as cold as possible. Choose packages that are cold and tightly wrapped without tears or punctures.
Bacteria continue to multiply slowly in the refrigerator. If you do not plan to cook meat with 2 to 4 days, or within 24 hours for ground meat, wrap and freeze.
Defrost meat in fridge, not on counter. Room temperature will allow the growth of bacteria on the surface of the meat, even while the inside remains frozen. When defrosting in the microwave, remove the exterior portions as they defrost. This prevents portions of the package overheating or starting to cook.

Hope that helps!

I wouldn't leave it for more than 3 days.

If I knew in advance I didn't want to use it within that period, I would freeze it as soon as it is cooled
