     History
    I'm not sure when it opened, but it's in the alley right next to my house, and I remember when I was little I could go in that store with a dime and come out with a bunch of candy. The really old couple who ran it were Mr. and Mrs. Clippinger; we called him the 'candy man'. They had all kinds of candy in there, everything kids could dream of, and it was all like 2 for a penny stuff. It closed down maybe 8 years ago, I remember one time I saw them dragging a huge plastic garbage bag out of it, and a rainbow of candy was spilling out of it.
