It’s that time again! Anyone else waiting for the queue to open?

Currently questioning everything about my life choices. Do I want to wait more than an hour for this? Will I just have to face the shops anyway? If I can get up at 6am today to wait in a virtual queue, I can get up at 6am a couple of days before christmas to shop. Do I need the Tesco queue in my life today?

🤔

For me it's the thought of dragging DC round for the Christmas shop that is keeping me motivated !

KnottyKnitting · 05/11/2024 06:18

That was a quick hour! Sorted for morning if 23rd! Good luck to those waiting in the queue!

chattyness · 05/11/2024 06:19

my wait time is more than an hour but I've been on there since 5.30 am,I live in a remote-ish area so a bit of a bun fight for slots here on a normal day. I've got a little red line crawling across the screen but 20 minutes after opening it still says more than an hour why isn't the ruddy time going down?

ChristmasPuddingAllRound · 05/11/2024 06:19

All done. Had the app open from 530.
Slots are showing up to the 30th December if you want to book ahead

LividSquid · 05/11/2024 06:20

One bottle of Bailey's booked for 21st December!

MsChatterbox · 05/11/2024 06:22

It went to 58 minutes then jumped back up to over an hour!

Macaroni46 · 05/11/2024 06:22

All done. Got the 23rd. Think this was the easiest year ever!

LadyofRutshire · 05/11/2024 06:23

I didn't know Tesco slots were today, thanks for this thread op. Now in the que 🤞

Good luck everyone

Bellyblueboy · 05/11/2024 06:23

Mine is jumping all over the place😂. 28 minutes now.

hoping slots will actually be left

TheShellBeach · 05/11/2024 06:23

I live in a remote village in Scotland and slots are hard to come by anyway.

I got a Morrisons one over a week ago though. But they're less reliable than Tesco's.

A few years ago that would have worked for me, but mine's reached that useful sort of age where she can be put in charge of the list and it'll keep her happy the entire time.

STILL more than an hour 😭

Tornado70 · 05/11/2024 06:23

Good luck everyone! I decided to try Sainsbury’s a couple of weeks ago when their slots were released: I got one straight away with no queue or stress!

I had to google. I'm sure they usually email?

Yes
mine is currently going up rather than down

DuckDuckJuice · 05/11/2024 06:24

5 mins to go, me and my trusty basket if bananas are poised

Thatsthequestion · 05/11/2024 06:25

Currently down to either 29 or 31 minutes (it keeps switching up and down)

TheShellBeach · 05/11/2024 06:25

The laptop is slower than the phone app.
How odd.

chocolateisavegetable · 05/11/2024 06:25

I’m quite enjoying the Christmas facts and jokes

WeAllHaveWings · 05/11/2024 06:26

All booked for Christmas and pre new year 😁

Back to bed for an hour! Good luck!

ExplodingCarrots · 05/11/2024 06:26

I was in at 6:01 . Fastest ever . Got the slot I wanted and booked all my December slots too . I'm glad they've learnt from the carnage of previous years .

Goatshavehairyfeet · 05/11/2024 06:26

Not too painful, took an extra few minutes so I could book a new years slot as well. Back to bed for me! Hope everyone else gets the slots they want.

Same! So annoying

DustyLee123 · 05/11/2024 06:28

It’s saying over an hour for me

Wengwin · 05/11/2024 06:29

2 mins to go after a start of 36

TheWomanTheyCallJayne · 05/11/2024 06:29

My wait time on the app went down to 41 minutes which seemed fair as is was going down in about real time.
It’s just gone rapidly back up to 58 and im wondering if it’ll tip back into the over an hour.
Luckily, the other is still going down. Slower than time however.
