Ridiculous Days Return To Oskaloosa

Shoppers have been able to find bargins at Penn Central Mall during Ridiculous Days

Oskaloosa, Iowa – That once a year event that use to carry with it an almost carnival feel has returned. That time seems so long ago. That special one day when everyone turned out to pick up all those items no longer wanted by your favorite downtown businesses.

Ridiculous Days are no longer the same, with frequent deep sales to draw customers on a regular basis, and the internet that always seems to offer rock bottom prices to those who search. Ridiculous Days seems to have won over the long time tradition of what could be best described as the yearly garage sale for downtown businesses.

With an economy that is sputtering along, people are always looking for a deal, and this years Ridiculous Days has something to offer those looking for such deals. Various businesses on the square, and in Penn Central Mall have been putting out some deals for everyone.

Patty Ryan, Penn Central Mall Manager, says that the stores there “have done very well” and that “there’s been a steady stream of people going through.” Ryan further said “it’s been pretty good for a hot Friday”.

If you can stand some heat, Saturday should provide you with some good bargains on items you may need or have been waiting to purchase.
