Is it too late to get a Christmas online food shop?

Ocado have annoyingly just informed me that I won't be getting my usual Sunday delivery on 21st December and now of course all the Christmas slots are gone.

Any chance of getting a slot with any of the other supermarkets?

Everywhere is fully booked up when I looked.

just looked for morrisons in my area latest i can get is this sunday night

so maybe you just need to check all the supermarkets that deliver to you

Absolutely doubt it. I had to get up at 6am on the day they released the slots and sit waiting, they still placed me in a virtual queue and I felt really fortunate to get a flexi slot for the 22nd (so a 4 hour window as opposed to the usual hour).

Bugger! Very unimpressed with Ocado that they left it so late to tell me they don't do normal deliveries on the 21st!

I booked Waitrose in october - no chance

Try Asda, we still have plenty of click and collect slots for Christmas week, no deliveries though.

Maybe click and collect rather than delivery? Worth a look

Keep checking for cancellations. I had Tesco booked for 23rd but cancelled it yesterday.

Managed to get one for Sainsbury's this coming Saturday night. I looked at Click and Collect too but they were all gone.

I've never used Sainsbury's before but I'd take what I can get rather than traipse round the supermarket.
