🎥 Do you have a favorite Christmas movie?

🎥 Almost everybody has a beloved film they watch every holiday season.

🎥 Is yours one of the films most watched this time of year?

Most people have an immediate answer when asked which holiday movie is their favorite. For me, my top 5 never change.

In no particular order, I MUST watch Elf, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, How The Grinch Stole Christmas with Jim Carrey, A Christmas Story, and The Holiday starring both Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz. If I don't watch those films each and every year, Christmas hasn't really come.

Of course, holiday movies aren't what Christmas is all about, but it is a beloved tradition that I cherish within the season year after year. These movies warm my heart. I know I'm not the only one.

Whether your favorite film is the original Miracle On 34th Street, It's A Wonderful Life, or the original classic based on Charles Dickens' novel A Christmas Carol, everyone has a favorite movie that embodies that warm and fuzzy Christmas feeling we all chase every single holiday season.

According to the folks at Casino.com, New Jersey has 10 specific holiday films that MUST be enjoyed for Christmas every year.

Flip Through the Vintage 1980s Sears Holiday Wish Book

Check out this Sears catalog that I got my hands on. It is the 1980 Sears Holiday Wish Book. It is nearly 500 pages of everything you wanted to circle in the book so Santa knew what you wanted for Christmas. I picked out a bunch of electronics, retro toys, hand-held games, roller skates, big wheels, clothes, and even a 1980s version of the electronic spin bike. Enjoy!
