Know what you mean, Joss. Trouble is getting the booking for a slot. Both Waitrose and Tesco put up new day-slots at 12 midnight. Deliveries are all fully booked within 30 secs. At present can still get collections. But both are changing their lead times: fewer slots on offer; twice the number of people wanting them. Therefore, according to basic laws of mathematics and economics, fewer people will get slots. The companies, however, say they’re doing this to allow MORE people to get slots! According to basic laws etc… Bo11ox!
Asda just as bad. I have a regular once a week slot for Clinically Vulnerable. Works fine. Asda just cancelled these slots over xmas, again, to help more people get slots. They email me telling me to book one-off slots. Website says no. I despair!
