Anyone else awake ready for the annual tesco delivery slot battle

Yeah I’m way back in the queue. I’m not hosting this year and after last year’s fiasco I couldn’t bring myself to wake up early so logged in at 6 to be something like 160,000 in the queue I’m only down to 130,000 now but still an hour wait.

May the odds be ever in your favour

Thankfully I was only 7000ish in the queue

 

[WeepingCassandra]

Greg James has just said there’s 260,000 plus in the queue now!

Ahh thanks but we rent so not an option, hence looking for creative ways to do it.

I hang lights on the inside of my windows. I'll see if I can find a photo from previous years. Then we get to enjoy them and look pretty from outside.

Reminded my partner last night as he wakes up earlier than I do but he forgot. I’m not 278,499 in the queue we’re not doing a massive Xmas it will probably be us and our daughter but could do without going to the shop as I’ll be 8.5 months pregnant

That’s a great idea!

How do you hang them? I’d like to do that this year my daughter would love it. Although still have her birthday banner up from end of oct so guess they’ll be up all year

Sounds like the Peter kay ticket fiasco over the weekend

We’ve bought some outdoors lights today to put up! My usually Grinch husband is feeling so festive this year, he says it’s because it’s our baby’s first Christmas and it’s special, but it’s very unnerving

I'd like to know this aswell. I hang them from the inside using cellotape but they never stay up!

I got some hooks that had sucker things on the back of them so you could stick them to windows. I thought I got them from Wilkos but had a quick look on there and can’t find them.

Something like this https://www.homebase.co.uk/bud-chri...rt1B3C5uruFVszpbyoBoCTjMQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Command clips is what I personally use. They're fabulous (I have like a light curtain these fit but they do bigger hooks too)

Didn't know these existed! My sister used blue tack and washi tape not to damage her rented wall. They were always falling off.

Get your ducks in a row OP....

Love this guy:

Thank you for all the replies! I’m going to be doing an Xmas decorations/supplies shop next week so will pick these up.

The Range sell gutter clips for lights.
