Find out when you can book your Christmas grocery delivery from UK supermarkets

There are now only five Saturdays left until Christmas – and Britons are already scrambling to get their hands on turkeys and cranberry sauce.

And this year, the rush to nab festive trimmings is at an all-time high, as Tesco’s website crashed when its Christmas delivery slots opened.

But when do the slots drop at the likes of Sainsbury’s, Aldi, and Waitrose?

Here are those all-important dates.

Tesco

Tesco’s Christmas delivery slots opened up on Tuesday (November 15) for Anytime Delivery customers.
