Approximately 30 percent of the stores will open at midnight, 50 percent will open by 5 a.m. and all stores will be open at 7 a.m. For a full list of stores, visit www.westfield.com/utc or call (858) 546-8858. Westfield UTC is located at 4545 La Jolla Village Drive. • Instead of fighting the crowds on Black Friday or Cyber Monday, try checking out local businesses for your holiday shopping needs on “Small Business Saturday” on Nov. 24 instead. Warwick’s, Bowers Jewelers, Everett Stunz and dozens of others in the Village will participate in the “shop small” movement to help drive the local La Jolla economy.
