Grocery order- when is yours booked?

Who is yours booked with and what date before Christmas? Have you gone delivery or click & collect?

Mines booked in on 21st delivery with Sainsburys.
Bit worried this is too early now but couldn't get any closer.
I am twitching on Asda click & collect on 23rd but last year it was chaos!

I always get the following:

Tesco delivery on 23rd - mainly general groceries

M&S collection on 24th in the morning - turkey and sides and any bits that didn't arrive from Tesco

I also have a Waitrose collection this year on the 23rd for some Christmassy treats

Tesco for the 23rd. That way whatever doesn't get delivered my husband has time to brave the shops for.

Sainsbury's on the evening of 22nd, and collecting from Morrisons on 23rd. Anything missing from Friday's delivery will be collected on Saturday.

23rd at 9am, Click and Collect. Not in the UK so won't post the shop.

22 Dec am with Ocado. If anything missing I will - shock horror - go to a supermarket. DH works in C London and has been known to pick up a turkey off the shelves on 23rd when deliveries have failed. There’s always loads on the shelves IME.

24 dec Waitrose. I wasn’t even trying to book one I registered to do an order last week and it came up with something about Xmas slots and I looked and there was one for midday on the 24 so I booked it

Sainsbury's, 23rd December. We are in all day on that day and it gives us Christmas Eve if there's anything important missing.

Got an Asda food delivery for
8-9am on Sat 23rd … then if there’s stuff missing or weird substitutions (looking at you, Tesco😡) there’s still enough time to whizz out to the local shop.

Tesco almost ruined my Christmas food shop a few years ago by subbing or just not sending important stuff - haven’t trusted them since with Xmas delivery.

Tesco on the 23rd here too

sprigatito · 06/12/2023 19:23

Mine is evening of 21st. I'm also worried it's a bit early, but also grateful to have got a slot at all, given how ridiculous shopping delivery services have become.

mrsm43s · 06/12/2023 19:24

I do it a bit differently. I have an online delivery for everything that won't have a short shelf life on 19th, and then on 23rd I'll brave the shops in person and buy all the short shelf life items, plus anything that wasn't delivered on 19th. I don't trust an online shop to deliver everything that I want in the state I want it, so am resigned to going in person anyway, but the earlier online shop makes that process as quick and painless as possible!

shearwater2 · 06/12/2023 19:26

24th. I'll get a few things beforehand though, bit hairy to leave everything to Christmas Eve.

vanillafudgecake · 06/12/2023 19:28

Ocado on the 23rd and anything I forget or is missing I can hopefully collect on Christmas Eve
