As the UK has entered Government-enforced lockdown, online food delivery has become more relevant than ever. Yes, you're allowed out of your house to buy essentials like groceries, but the government's advice is to minimise contact with other people to help combat the spread of coronavirus, and that's where supermarket deliveries come in.
Of course, with more people working from home or in self-isolation, the demand for online grocery deliveries has greatly increased - putting a massive strain on the system. This is making it hard to get a delivery slot, with wait times now measured in weeks rather than days.

The good news is that supermarkets have been working hard to speed up the supply and availability of groceries. But which online grocery delivery service has the earliest slots?
That is, quite frankly, a very difficult story to answer, as there are many variables, but our friends at TechRadar have compiled a list of popular supermarkets in key areas around the country.
It looks like you'll be waiting until around the middle/end of April for a delivery slot.
These are the next available slots at supermarkets around the UK:
Please remember, if you do manage to get a delivery slot, use the service responsibly and only order what you need – don't be selfish.

Of course, supermarkets aren't the only way to get your groceries delivered – there are also meal box delivery services (which deliver ingredients and recipes to your door), as well as good old-fashioned take-aways (if you don't fancy cooking).
