How to book a delivery slot

Every supermarket will operate differently when it comes to the booking procedures for delivery and click and collect.

All supermarkets will put delivery slots up on their website as soon as they're available

With Ocado already selling out of slots, it is best to act quickly to ensure your spot so you do not have to miss out.

It is also important to check whether you can edit your orders as many shops including Asda, Sainsbury's, Tesco and Waitrose allow customers to edit their order as many times as they wish.

This could be handy in case you forget the sage and onion stuffing or the treasured box of Quality Street!
