With just 10 weeks to go until Christmas, shoppers are already starting to think about the big day.

And Asda customers are being warned to act fast if they want to pre-book their food deliveries during the festive period.

From Tuesday, October 15, Asda Delivery Pass customers will be able to book a delivery or click and collect slot online or via the Asda app.

All other shoppers are then able to book a slot from October 22.

The retailer says that more than one million home delivery and click and collect slots will be available in the week leading up to Christmas.

Georgina Bell, Interim Senior Director of Asda.com commented: “Before we know it, the festive season is upon us, and lots of our customers will be looking at ways they can get ahead of the preparations. This year in particular, we’ve seen a significant increase in online searches for Christmas products, from as early as mid-September.

“Shoppers can also make changes or additions to their basket up until 11pm the night before their delivery or collection, which we know is important for those ever-evolving Christmas plans to celebrate with family and friends.”

The minimum online spend at Asda is £40 for delivery and £25 for click and collect. For more information about Asda’s Christmas offering and how to book their slot, shoppers can visit: asda.com/Christmas.
