Supermarkets have started opening their Christmas delivery slots, allowing the organised among us to start planning their festive feasts.
The earlier you get in, the better chance you have of nailing down your desired slot, taking one element of stress out of the mountain of planning that goes into hosting Christmas.
Here’s when each major chain is letting customers book slots, and how to secure yours.

Booking for those with pay-as-you-go and off-peak subscriptions will then open from 6am on Tuesday, 21 November.
