Tesco Christmas slots 🎄

Who's else setting their alarms ridiculously early tomorrow morning to join the Tesco queue and bag their Christmas delivery slot? 🤣🎄

My husband gets up for work at 4:45am anyway, so he's already been instructed to wake me up at the same time so I can get myself ready to jump in the queue at 5am!

Thought I'd start a little thread so we can all keep each other company tomorrow morning while we're half asleep, clutching our coffees and desperately waiting for our turn to book our Christmas slots!

Who's joining me for the annual Tesco Christmas slot madness?

And there we go, it’s starting!

KnottyKnitting · Today 05:46

Ooh I have a queue!

ChickenStuffing · Today 05:47

Says queue is paused. Is that same for everyone?

DoloresOnTheDottedLine · Today 05:47

@SpidersAreShitheads yes, I definitely don’t think they publicised the earlier queue joining option - I think I discovered it by accident. Perhaps this year, to make it fairer, they have decided to open only at the advertised time.

Skybluecoat · Today 05:47

Mine only just appeared, several minutes after others started mentioning it.

Catatthedoor · Today 05:51

Well I’ve got my account on phone and my parents account on iPad and theirs was a few minutes being mine!

Skybluecoat · Today 05:51

Remember you can just checkout a few things and change it later. No need to do whole Christmas shop now.

SpidersAreShitheads · Today 05:51

I have the queue is paused too - @yamsam I had to open a new window as it wasn’t popping up.

DaisyDooley · Today 05:52

Morning ladies!
Every year the same carry on!!

yamsam · Today 05:52

Never mind, I'm in the pre-que now!

Are you serviced by different stores @Catatthedoor?

DaisyDooley · Today 05:53

Do we get our queue numbers @ 6am?

SpidersAreShitheads · Today 05:54

How long do you reckon the wait will be once it opens at 6am? I haven’t been to bed yet (for reasons unrelated to Tesco!) and I’m so tired!!

Do you need to refresh the screen or will it update automatically
