Sainsburys' Delivery slots: What time are they released?

[NatalDrag]

As the title says.

I know the dates, now i just need the times!

Does anyone work for them?

I’ve had a reminder email from them but it didn’t say times. Last year it was just after midnight so presuming the same.

They seem to be the only supermarket that don’t give any priority to delivery pass holders.

Are we allowed to book 2 slots across the 4 xmas days?

@NatalDrag

They have allowed us to do this in the past.

At the moment the website is saying that we can book a delivery every day and as long as it’s over £40 the delivery pass covers it. Since the one delivery a week rule was lifted in the summer I have had some deliveries twice a week and it’s been fine. Also my local store has started doing click and collect which has increased capacity.

I’m hoping to have my usual delivery on Sun 20th and then I’ll have another smaller delivery or do a click and collect on the 23rd for fresh fruit and veg and other bits.

For the sake of all those shielding, vulnerable and struggling to get delivery slots, please don't get two deliveries for yourself in three days. Click and collect- fair enough if there are plenty of slots, but you can easily make your weekly shop stretch out a few more days or get your Christmas shop a few days early to avoid two deliveries in quick succession.

I only need one slot, but I want the closest date possible (December 23rd), which isn't released until tomorrow. The 20th, 21st, and 22nd have already been released. I have booked the 22nd as a back-up option, but I will 100% cancel it if I get the 23rd tomorrow.

They don’t release until 2 weeks before. Don’t seem to be like other supermarkets. They just release them at the normal time

Has anyone else been able to book the 23rd yet? It's still not showing for me :(

I'm booked and confirmed for 23rd but I have priority as I cannot physically go to the shops so possibly why?
Please don't book 2 slots in the same week.

The 23rd is showing lots of slots available for me, and I already have one booked for 22nd (I won't be booking for the 23rd of course).

I’ve just booked 23rd.

How are you all booking Sainsbury's Christmas slots?! According to my account/the page on the website, the Christmas slots don't open until 29/11

Just booked mine on their website?! I do find it’s full of glitches though.

Does any one know when they release slots for non delivery pass holders?

The 23rd still isn't showing for me?

Are all slots nationally released at the same time? Or do different regions have different times, maybe? I'm in the North East.

I’ve just booked mine. It is possibly different for different areas though. Is your delivery pass definitely current? Also, no they aren’t allowing more than one delivery per address during the 20-23 Dec period.

They’re open in advance for delivery pass holders.

23rd is available today for delivery pass customers, and with availability across all time slots in my area (NW England)

I think people who are shielding have priority. I can see 23rd today but have already booked for 22nd.

Sainsbury's don't let you book two slots in a week

I'm shielding so priority but no delivery pass and can't see anything beyond the 9th

I booked the 23rd about 8am this morning

@Judashascomeintosomemoney

Ah thanks - that makes sense!

I tried unsuccessfully to book the 23rd just after midnight so booked the 20th instead. Ten minutes ago I was able change the delivery to the 23rd. I do have a midweek delivery pass but they must release slots in batches.

I do a weekly online shop with Sainsbury’s due to being rural and not driving but I haven’t a delivery pass...

Do you think if I set one up and paid for today I’d be able to book a Christmas slot?
