I'm planning on picking up a 10 lb prime rib tonight (on sale for $7.99) to cook and serve on Christmas.

If I vacuum seal it when I get home, can it be stored in the refrigerator or is my best bet to put it in the freezer?
 
Ask the store how long it's on sale for. Buy it couple days before Christmas if still on sale
 
Season it up with S&P, or Montreal steak seasoning & vac pack it, that way it will easily go until Christmas Day.
It will get some good flavor too.

i let mine sit uncovered with the rub on for days so it drys on outside.. heck the dry aged beef is at like 42 degrees or lso for 45 days and it is the best and most tender you can get....but they lose a lot of weight...
