Normal Records

Normal Records is a locally owned record store focusing on new and used vinyl. Normal Records is also known for having a variety of more recent bands and genres that are overlooked at other stores. The owner strives to pass down his savings to customers, who often tell him he has the lowest prices in town. They buy records for cash or store credit, and they also sell turntables. 

Nickelodeon Records

Nickelodeon Records opened in 1984, selling only vinyl, and continues today still selling only vinyl along with Nickelodeon Records and Oscar's Drive-In t-shirts. Run by two knowledgeable women who pride themselves as excellent graders and fair prices, they believe their maturity and experience enable them to serve customers of all ages. The store focuses on folk and rock but also places a unique emphasis on interesting cover art. 

Vinyl Record Junkies Shack

Vinyl Record Junkies Shack is a highly-curated store. They aim to be the go-to place for new vinyl listeners and serious record collectors, but as a small shop with limited space, they are intentional about the records they carry, placing emphasis on quality. They buy records, cassettes, CDs, turntables, memorabilia, and more from all genres. Their Digger's Den is full of low-priced merchandise so that you can find a bargain on rare or common records.
