Whether you’re looking to find a new album or to start your own collection these five record stores are the place to go. It’s time to dust off your turntables and turn the volume as high as it can go. But of course they also CDs if that’s more your style.

1. Vintage Vinyl

Open since 1979, Vintage Vinyl has not only been selling music to the masses but they have been inviting musicians to perform on their stage. With a large selection of vinyl and CDs, you will always leave with something new to listen to. All you have to do is walk through their white stands to see pictures of every musician that has played there. This includes bands like Jimmy Eat World, My Chemical Romance, Nick Jonas, Modern Baseball and Ozzy Osbourne.

2. Spina Records

At first glance Spina Records seems to be any old house, that is until you see the bins of vinyl records on the table out front and hear the hand-picked music playing. Not only does Spina Records sell used vinyl records for inexpensive prices, they also have cassette tapes, turntables, and a variety of vintage antiques and decor available.

118 Easton Ave, New Brunswick, NJ, 08901

3. Princeton Record Exchange

The Princeton Record Exchange is one of the largest record stores and has been around since 1980. Other than the usual vinyl records and CDs they also sell DVDs and keep an inventory of over 100,000 titles, both new and used. If you ever manage to listen to everything from Vintage Vinyl the Princeton Record Exchange should be your next adventure.

20 South Tulane Street, Princeton, NJ, 08542

4. Revilla Grooves & Gear

If you're looking for that one obscure record, go to Revilla Grooves and Gear. They sell mostly used vinyl, turntables and all things vintage. Once a worker at the Princeton Record Exchange, owner Darren Revilla is always eager to check out your collection and price it fairly. Plus they offer repair services for vintage turntables and speakers through The Turntable Doctor.

38 North Main Street, Milltown, NJ, 08850

5. Groovy Graveyard

For those interested in collectible memorabilia from 70s horror to 50s sci-fi, the Groovy Graveyard is your place. They might not be home to strictly vintage records but they still have a hearty vinyl collection. While this shop may be small it is filled from top to bottom, when you visit be ready to rummage.

658 Cookman Avenue, Asbury Park, NJ, 07712

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
