Tesco Christmas Slots

[Redglitter]

Cant see another thread....

So they open at 0600 tomorrow. How long do you think we'll be stuck in a queue to get one. And will all the good ones be gone by the time we do

I'm setting my alarm for 0530 I think 🤔

[quote Thirdphase]@yuledo thank you for your response. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long. I wanted to check in case I had done something wrong. Thanks.[/quote]
You had to have been a delivery saver subscriber by a certain date to get the Xmas slots today so you'll have to wait until the 23rd now.

[quote lucysmam]@Ryannah have you checked the flexi slots, rather than specific hour ones? I've just looked on mine & there are some of those, but not the hour ones, left on 23rd in my area [/quote]
Thanks for this tip, by changing to flexi I managed to grab the 22nd!

What a shame. I’ve been paying £4.50 a time. Should have done it ages ago.

I was booking for customers who Tesco have registered as 'priority'
I thought priority delivery slots ended six months ago?

@Edjut

Tesco should stop people booking more than one slot in Christmas week like they did in the lockdowns when you could only book one a week.

Agreed! And stop the app queue-jumping.

But seriously, how is this our lives?!
Also agreed!

No. Still going for those that need them.

Glad it helped someone @Garriet! I always forget about them when I'm huffing that I can't get the slot I want when I'm doing my normal shop 🙄

Oh I feel soooo Christmassy!

Yes, it's just not Christmas until the annual MN middle-of-the-night Tesco Xmas Slot panic, angst, relief and support thread!

@Thirdphase

Has anyone joined delivery saver this morning and managed to get a slot please ? If so how long did it take ? Thank you.

I've been a local Tesco customer for years but hadn't thought to sign up for Delivery Saver before

Unfortunately you won't be able to access the Xmas slots if you only signed up today. You have to sign up by a particular date to be able to be eligible.

Not that 'priority' seems to mean anything with Tesco today.

@BarefootHippieChick You'll have some tesco employee rocking up in their own car with food from their fridge

That has happened (own car, not own fridge!) but not on Christmas Day.

Tesco delivery man just said that the reason they don't deliver Christmas Eve is because if things aren't available then people haven't got time to get them elsewhere, if stuff isn't available on 23rd then people can still get things. Some on here though have got Christmas Eve slots though

Didn't think to do the flexi slot - I got the 20th but everything has now gone even the flexi slot - oh well, it'll have to do

Aha that makes sense, thank you.

Thanks for the reminder! I'd completely forgotten, just went on and amazed to find good availability! Just booked a morning slot for the 22nd.

I only want to book my normal slot... got through at 8:07

Forgot about this and logged in at 9am but all delivery slots for Xmas week were gone. I did manage to get a click and collect slot for 23rd though so happy with that.

Try the flexi saver delivery option if the hourly slots have gone, they usually do have some slots and often update daily

Just wondered have Tesco stopped giving paper delivery notes with their deliveries?

I didn't get one last time, and wondered if it was a new thing or an oversight. Just wondered as it was a bit annoying. I like to tick all the items of to make sure my order is all there.

They email them now instead of handing out paper ones

Thanks, rainbowandglitter

Just to pass on the information from the other thread that New Year's week slots are now open.

And all gone in my area even priority slots !

I still get the paper ones
