Planning on getting your Christmas food shop from Morrisons? You can now bag your delivery or click & collect slot as bookings have opened for all shoppers today (Wednesday 9 October).

You can book your slot on Morrisons.com or through the app, which is free to download on Android and iOS (this is separate from the Morrisons More loyalty scheme app).

You can pick a delivery or collection date between 20 and 24 December. The last day to place a new click & collect order for turkey will be Monday 16 December.

Morrisons delivery pass members had first dibs on slots

Slots were first released on Wednesday 2 October for those with Morrisons' delivery passes.

Buying a delivery pass upfront means you don't have to pay delivery charges each time you order, plus you're offered certain discounts and other perks. But you'll need to weigh up whether this is worth it based on how often you do an online shop and how much you normally spend.

A mid-week delivery pass (Tuesday to Thursday) costs £5 for one month, £25 for six months or £40 for a year. An anytime delivery pass costs £8 for one month, £45 for six months or £70 for a year.

What to watch out for when booking Christmas supermarket delivery slots

  1. Bag your slot early if you can. They've often gone quickly in previous years.

  2. Check if you can edit orders. Many shops let you make an unlimited number of changes to your order by certain deadlines. So, even if you're not sure what your final shopping list will be, it may be worth getting your order in with just a few items and making edits later (but set a reminder so you don't forget!).

    Morrisons does let you make changes to your order after you've placed it – but look out for your specific cut-off time in your order confirmation email and make sure you finalise your order before the deadline.

  3. Beware delivery fees. Most supermarkets will deliver up to and including Christmas Eve, but opting for click & collect will invariably be cheaper than choosing a home delivery.

  4. Remember to factor in food costs, as these will vary by supermarket. Try using a comparison tool, such as Trolley, to benchmark the cost of items at major supermarkets including Morrisons, Tesco, Sainsbury's and more. You can also use Trolley to set alerts for when the price of your favourite items drop. For more ways to save on food, see our Supermarket shopping tips guide.

  5. Not all supermarkets release specific Christmas dates for orders. Co-op, for example, will be running its usual delivery services up until and including Christmas Eve.
