home shopping

[grumpyoldgit]

having filled out the government form to say that I have COPD, I now have a weekly slot till October with Asda where as before delivery where like gold dust and I have had an email off Sainsbury offering home delivery as well just waiting for Tesco and Morrison. The system works.

That’s great! We’ve got the Asda delivery slots too. Xxx

Do you mind me asking how you have found Asda sassy? Like you, I have shopped with Sainsbury for years but its frustrating and time-consuming trying to get slots with them, even though I'm on their vulnerable list. Thank you.

[sassy59 in reply to Dedalus]

I don’t mind at all Dedalus but our first delivery with Asda will be on the 17th so I’ll let you know. I only chose them because they could offer a slot each week.

Like you I find Sainsbury’s difficult to book ongoing shopping slots with so hadn’t much choice really.

Good luck and stay safe. Xxx

[Dedalus in reply to sassy59]

Thanks sassy - I'm thinking of using Asda for same reason, so you can get a slot each week. I'm just teetering on the brink lol xx

[sassy59 in reply to Dedalus]

Don’t teeter for too long. Xxx

[Dedalus in reply to sassy59]

You're right sassy lol - I'll have to come to a decision today, otherwise they might knock me off their vulnerable list!! You're always thinking of others, bless you xx

[sassy59 in reply to Dedalus]

Bless you too Dedalus, I just want you to get your slots. Xxx 😘🌈

[Dedalus in reply to sassy59]

I know - thank you sassy xx

You have done very well to get weekly slots from Asda until October. I am on Sainsburys vulnerable list and had a delivery yesterday but all the slots for next week in my area are already booked up and the weeks after that have not yet been released. I also have an account with Tesco and am acknowledged as being vulnerable but they are still booked solid three weeks in advance in my area.

The system varies so much across the country and I feel for all those still trying to get registered on a supermarket priority list and those who still haven't been able to get a delivery at all.

I was only given one delivery slot with sainsbury's but with asda's I was offered how times I wanted a delivery I think I have fallen lucky with this

[CDPO16 in reply to grumpyoldgit]

I'm genuinely pleased for you. It takes away a lot of stress and worry. Best wishes xx

Iceland if on vunerable list just need to go n their page every morning at 11.00am to try and get booking. Does come up you are in a queue for an hour.i waited just under 10 minutes

[kathbrad3]

Your lucky I can't get one managed to get one with Iceland but very little choice and only got half of what I ordered
