Sharon, Pennsylvania - Daffin's Chocolate Kingdom

Sharon claims not one, not two, but three "world's largest" stores, including the World's Largest Candy Store: Daffin's Chocolate Kingdom. I'm not sure what measure they use for this, although it is definitely a very large candy store, with a huge selection of chocolate. Very nice people!

Sharon also touts: the World's Largest Shoe Store, Reyer's (W. State St., Downtown Sharon). I'm not sure what measure they use for this, but i've definitely seen larger shoe stores. They claim to have 175,000 shoes in stock (womans, mens, and kids).

And the World's Largest Off-Price Fashion Store: The Winner (W. State St., Downtown Sharon). I was with two girls -- Karin and Lisa W. -- who went crazy when they saw the sign. Definitely an interesting experience. Overall, Sharon, PA seems to take a little 'creative liberty' with using the term "World's Largest", but they have some interesting stores for a short side trip. The town's other claims to fame are the original Quaker Steak and Lube bar and restaurant (with several classic cars suspend from the ceiling), home of "The Club" auto security device, and the "World's Oldest Pizza Kitchen" - although that's also a pretty big claim to make.
