Harvey's Market — Local services in Washington

I visited your location on 9/9/23 at 6:30pm. I was greeted by a gentleman. When greeted I inquired about meat packages, the gentleman handed a flyer with a list of packages. As I reviewed them , he asked if I can step to the side so he assist another customer which I completely understood. After he assisted the customer I informed him of the package I wanted. I asked if I substitute the leg quarters , as I did not eat them. I was informed yes and they held a $10.00 value.
