I can't seem to find any info on website. Hmm

It's already open.

justabigdisco · 28/10/2013 15:18

They opened on 24th Oct. The 23/24 Dec ones have all gone in my area.

storminabuttercup · 28/10/2013 15:19

None at all in my area then! Balls! Missed it! Hmm

Just checked my emails and it says I'll be able to book mine from the 30th November, maybe it's because I'm not that frequent a customer.

storm do you have a smart pass? Maybe that's why? I think 24/10 from justabigdisco is correct. I can book mine when I did my order last thursday.

MrsCampbellBlack · 28/10/2013 15:28

Yes, I booked mine last week but you get earlier booking times when you have the smart pass.

CecyHall · 28/10/2013 15:30

I have a smart pass and booked mine last Thursday (must remember to take out the champagne that I chucked in to hold the slot)

Do they hold some spaces back for non pass holders as there were hardly any available slots for Christmas Eve when I did it on the first day?

Hulababy · 28/10/2013 16:01

I booked mine last Thursday. 24th had already all gone. Now coming late on 23rd

Hulababy · 28/10/2013 16:03

I have delivery pass thing. Last week, 24th was earliest I could do it

Artandco · 28/10/2013 16:27

Have a 24th dec slot booked. It's full of wine for far!

LaurieFairyCake · 28/10/2013 16:32

My dates aren't released until 31st October ( also have smart pass and get deliveries every week)

They emailed me saying it would be the 31st about a month ago - never have any trouble getting the 23rd (my preferred day)

storminabuttercup · 28/10/2013 16:34

That's strange then. I'll want the 23rd. Suppose it's no big deal if I don't get it as I'll know well in advance.

Booked mine already for the 24th, but there were hardly any left in my area when I booked. Hoping snow doesn't prevent delivery again.

Emus · 28/10/2013 17:18

Oh thanks for this, I had no idea it had opened. Checked my email and the email from Ocado had gone into my spam. Have managed to book the 24th and have fingers and toes crossed that no unusual weather systems occur otherwise we will be screwed! Excited now - doesn't take much does it?! Grin

I too have a trolley full of booze holding my slot for Waitrose and am worried I may forget to update it
Slots went really quickly this year, we got last thing on the 23rd (which I wanted) but that was one if the few left :)
