We're Blogging Live From The Midnight Madness Event at Los Cerritos Center!

* Editor's Note: This article will be updated throughout Black Friday. For a list of the retailers offering awesome Midnight Madness and Black Friday deals, .

• 11:47 p.m. Thanksgiving: The doors to the busiest shopping day of the year are open folks! We are here at and I cannot believe how many diehard shoppers are already here! The Cerritos-Artesia Patch booth is located in between and -- look for the green floor and white picket fence. Yes, very Patchy chic, if I must say so myself! We're also right across from DJ Roueche, so you better believe, the energy is sky high in here and if you see me dancing, please ignore me, I'm working off my Thanksgiving dinner. We haven't given out our FREE cookies yet, so swing by at about 12:15 a.m. and if you're one of the lucky ones, we will hook you up with some Midnight Madness fuel!
• 12:43 a.m. Black Friday: We still have lots of free cookies, so swing by and say hello! The energy in here is amazing and from what it looks like, lots of shoppers are taking advantage of the great deals that Los Cerritos Center has to offer today. One of the deals I will definitely be cashing in on in the next few hours is the one for mall giftcards. Any mall giftcards purchased at a minimum of $50.00 will have the fee waived if bought between midnight and 3 a.m. Visit the Guest Services booth for all the details! 
• 1:32 a.m. Black Friday: These shoppers are hanging tough and everyone is still full of post-Thanksgiving Day energy! In about 30 minutes, shoppers who have spent at least $75 can bring their receipts to the Guest Services booth near to receive a complimentary Midnight Madness Tumbler. This offer is good between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. ONLY, so go out and spend and get your cool freebie!!!
• 2:07 a.m. Black Friday: DJ Roueche is keeping things live over here at the Nordstrom wing. Love Culture just across the way from the Patch booth is having a very cool "Buy One, Get One Free" deal and 40% off select items. So get your shop on and you'll be looking sexy and chic all winter long!
• 2:26 a.m. Black Friday: So word on the street is is having a spectacular sale! We just interviewed a shopper who said he was one of the first 100 shoppers and received a free digital camera. Hello? How awesome is that? I know where I'll be headed in a few hours!
• 3:01 Black Friday: OK everyone, we're about to wrap things up here at the Patch booth because this girl has a couple of shops to hit and I'm not going to lie, I need a serious nap! for a complete list of Black Friday and holiday deals here at Los Cerritos Center. Happy shopping everyone, we'll be back at the booth this afternoon and we hope to see you later today :)
