Does anyone know when they go live? I don’t really care when I have one in that week but my last delivery is on the 19th so I would definitely like another before 2021/Brexit. Not fussed which supermarket at this stage. Prefer Waitrose/ Sainsburys but also like Tesco/ Asda. Have never managed to score a Morrisons slot so not expecting that to change any time soon. Thank you!

Sainsbury's don't seem to have theirs up yet. I'm assuming they'll be released 2 weeks beforehand as per normal slots.

Oh good that sounds doable, thank you! I couldn’t remember usual pattern and I think last year I had Ocado subscription so had booked miles ahead.
I did recently raise the erratic release of delivery dates with Waitrose and was told firmly that they would just release them when they were ready. Bur maybe other supermarkets are more creatures of habit.

i booked one with morrisons yesterday for 29th

I think Sainsbury’s have gone back to two weeks in advance. If you want Sunday 27th they’ll probably become available on Sunday 13th.

This is super helpful. Thank you. Will get looking now just in case- Friday night fun!

I have my tesco orders in for 28th Dec and 4th Jan, you could try them and if you manage to get a Sainsburys cancel the Tesco one.

I got a Tesco one for Jan 4th a while ago. Then they suddenly were only available to Christmas week. ConfusedBut my jan 4th is still listed 🤔

Vickles20 · 11/12/2020 22:48

Asda is up. Just got 28th. Still classed as a Christmas slot. My reoccurring slot starts back again on 4th jan

I have been unable to get any delivery slots at any of the supermarkets, been trying for a month, no collections either. I usually use Tesco every week, ended up cancelling my delivery membership thingy because I just can’t get any slots. Have had to order from a local butcher and will have to pop to a supermarket Christmas Eve if I can find someone to have dd. Can’t get a slot between Christmas and new year either.

I always just winged it before covid and the ocado M&S migration but now it is precision planning to book! We won’t starve but it is annoying. Queues outside local butcher at 8am when I walked past.

Everything seems to be haphazard and possibly dependent on where you live. And I'm not sure how that pans out.

Every time I do an order, get a delivery I just have to cross fingers it'll be mostly ok.

I've got one booked for Jan 3rd with Tesco.

Hillsandhumps · 12/12/2020 22:09

Tesco are out :) we booked for a couple of days before new year. :)

I've just booked Sainsbury’s for 27 December.
