Successful Tesco delivery slot

Ok, so who here has successfully booked a slot with Tesco’s home delivery?

I’m pregnant and also have to shield but have miserably failed all of last week in securing a slot.
I had brief luck on Tuesday last week but then stupidly went back to choose another slot time and somehow both slots had gone.
Set alarm and tried again at 23.55 all week and I get put in the queue but when so I eventually get through all slots are gone.
I was in the queue from 23.50 to 00.15 last night but no slots when I got through. Randomly checked at 00.35 and found several fixed saver slots available @ £5.50 which is expensive but I thought sod it and pressed to book a slot, but the page was stuck for 5 mins with no confirmation of the slot so I refreshed - lo and behold - all slots gone.

Can anyone share theirs tips please? Getting desperate now. Thank you

Managed to book 1 slot for myself and 1 for my mum, who lives an hour away, for 23 and 24th April on 3rd and 4th April. Both times I was on Tesco App at 12 sharp and went straight to their last day. By the time I booked my slot the first night, all other slots were gone, so had to do it again next night.

I had one over a week ago (booked about 2-3 weeks in advance) for us an MIL.

The soft fruit was mouldy the next day, the fresh items had very short shelf lives, and they managed to pop an opened bottle of dishwasher liquid into the very top crate (nothing was packed in bags) and it leaked alllllll the way down. Not very impressed.

I have not managed to get a slot anywhere else and am trying to get something set up fro MIL who is in the priority category for Ocado but I need to register her with YouGov or something like that.
