when are you doing your food shop?

[BrieAndChilli]

just that really!
I'm planning on going 6am on the 23rd. not sure if thats too late and lots of stuff will be out of stock?
Wont do the sunday as that is normal hours so wont be able to go early or late.

I went last night. I was in Marks at 7.45 then in Morrisons by just after 8. Home and all unpacked before 9. Both shops were deserted. I think there can't have been more than half a dozen other people in Morrisons. And I got everything I needed. I feel smug and chilled now.

Food delivery came this morning. I wanted tomorrow but forgot to book my slot early enough. Picked the meat up yesterday so apart from the odd thing I’ve forgotten (which I can get from the co-op) I’m pretty much sorted 👍🏻

I'm going for my last little bits on Monday afternoon but I've got all the main, most important things so I'm not worried. Also won't be in a rush so doesn't matter too much if it's busy.

I’m about to brave Supermarket now. Went to M&S yesterday morning when they opened and it was horrendous. So busy they had to close the shop! Anything I can’t get this morning at least I know I can probably pick up tomorrow when I collect my meat from the farm.

Went this morning. Left at 4:30 back at 5:45 (20 minute journey time).
It was bliss.

Now! I’m still in bed having coffee though. Your lists are panicking me. Maybe I should have got up an hour ago.

Now as well! Aldi opens at 8 and I'll be there waiting for them. Deep breaths and elbows sharpened

Not until after Christmas after what I witnessed yesterday. I tried to go Aldi and the car park was heaving.

Im goin to Aldi this morning. Going to drop dd at nursery at 8 then go straight there, although I don't a massive shop so not anticipating issues.
I've got most of the cheese board already in the fridge!

Got pretty much all of my fresh stuff at M&S and Waitrose yesterday as DH was with me, have to pop to Waitrose this afternoon to pick up last minute JL present so will go round with a basket for anything else I missed.

Was in Asda for 5.10 back home 6.20 but the car park had really filled up a lot during the hour I was inside.

My delivery is coming between 8 and 9 this morning and will pick up anything else when I collect my meat order tomorrow morning.

This morning was manic!
We got there later than planned. Around 9am. Our local supermarket played “checkout bingo” while people were waiting though and my 2 boys won! A selection box and a chocolate Santa! Really raised spirits and I thought it was a lovely idea.
Had to pop into a tesco this afternoon though while out and about for some olive oil and eggs as I’d forgotten them (around 4pm) and it was no busier than a normal day! Strange!

Shopping done at just after 6 this morning. Sainsburys was empty, got everything I wanted apart from cherry brandy and dark chocolate Lindor, neither of which are exactly essential. Just have to pick up the M&S order at 9, then I'm all done.

6am 😱

I hope the shops are not too busy today. Don’t need a big shop but need calpol and a bottle of baileys 😂, I don’t want to get stuck amongst people doing their big shop.

Ver impressed, both Ocado deliveries spot on, one substitution of small bottles of tonic instead of big, an extra £5 but easier than going out. Long dates on all the fresh.

I did pop to Aldi yesterday for 3 things and it was dead. I still forgot peanuts but not going out again as we are a long way from any shops.
Christmas is go here!

@Lordfrontpaw it was worth it, the shop was empty so I whizzed round and got pretty much everything, and now I have a decent excuse for going back to bed for a bit
