Shoppers are being warned that supermarket slots are running low at some stores this Christmas.

Tesco, Asda and M&S have already warned about limited slots for Christmas supermarket deliveries, the Manchester Evening News reports.

Tesco is experiencing high demand, while Asda has warned shoppers: 'Once slots are gone, they’re gone.'

Sainsbury's' is urging people not to leave it too late - and M&S says its slots are already running out.

It is clear, then, that shoppers would be foolish to leave it too late as the Christmas dash for groceries and gifts intensifies.

Naomi Schraer of MoneySavingExpert said: 'With ongoing coronavirus restrictions, it's likely supermarket delivery slots will be in even greater demand this year with some households keen to avoid the shops, so it's best to get in while you can.'

The Be Clever With Your Cash website also warns that even if you do get a slot, some must-need items might run out because of the Christmas rush.

So for those who want to plan things now, the MEN has taken a look at the available information.

Tesco

Tesco's website says: 'We're experiencing high demand for slots around Christmas'.

At the moment, shoppers can book a click and collect slot or a flexi saver delivery slot.

The supermarket advises people to book a slot and add a few items to checkout before giving yourself more time to make your final list.

Once you are ready to finish your order, go back and check out again by 11:45pm on the day before your delivery.

Don't worry if you have forgotten something, because you can also amend your order as many times as you like, but make sure to check out each time you do.

But be warned - if there are any Festive Food to Order items in your Christmas basket, you will need to check them out by 11.45pm on December 14.

To find out more and to book a click and collect or flexi saver delivery slot, go here.

Morrisons

Shoppers can get a Morrisons same-day delivery throughout December if they order through Amazon.

The two giants have joined forces ahead of Christmas and you can book a delivery up to 3pm on December 24 - although this does depend on availability.

After that, they will then resume taking orders from 12pm on Christmas Day for grocery essentials from December 26.

So you can see that leaving things until the last minute on Christmas Eve is not an option.

The delivery is free for Prime members.

If you are not already a Prime member you can sign up for a free 30-day trial.

This will also allow you to take advantage of the Morrisons delivery as well as other Prime benefits including TV and film streaming and next-day delivery on thousands of products.

You can also amend your basket as many times as you like until 11pm the day before.
