    I haven't entered the world of online supermarket shopping yet!

    I still go and get shoved in the ankles by other people's trolleys and wait in a queue for ages to be served by someone who's usually miserable and doesn't want to be there!

    Oh I didn't know this one... can you book in advance then?

    I'm online shopping for my mum at the moment. Should I be booking a slot for the next few weeks for her?

    Thanks

    This is one thing that put's me off online grocery shopping.

    I root around to the back to get longer dates and fresher food but no doubt they just pick the products from the front?

    We go about 4am xmas eve, not many people out shopping then!

    My mil(almost) works for the online shopping at sainsburys in cornwall, she spends ages picking the right stuff people order, she sees it as if she wont eat it why should anyone else and if customer gets rubbish they wont go back again.

    Stayed up till midnight last night to book the 23rd - took 20 mins as it kept crashing due to volume I expexct! 24th slots are available from midnight tonight (Tesco). I'm knackered now though! Must remember to go back and add shooping or we'll just get bread and milk I put on to checkout & keep slot
