Tesco issues important message for anyone who buys Baileys at Christmas

Tesco has issued an important message to Bailey lovers this christmas. The popular drink is a top choice for host gifts this Christmas and the second most popular gift for friends and loved ones, according to Tesco Christmas Trends Report 2024.

This makes it the perfect time to stock up on Baileys, a festive favourite that’s also ideal for holiday recipes like Festive Eton Mess or an Irish Cream Chocolate Yule Log.

Lucky for fans, starting Tuesday, November 19, Tesco is offering 1L bottles of Baileys at their lowest price of the year*. Until December 9, shoppers can grab a bottle for just £10** with a Clubcard, saving 54 percent (£12).

Tesco’s Christmas delivery slots also opened last week, drawing eager shoppers who queued from the early hours. Priority slots were available from November 5, but regular customers can now secure their slots as of 6am on November 12.

How can I book a Tesco Christmas slot?

Booking either a click & collect or home delivery slot with Tesco couldn't be easier.

All you need to do is simply head over to the Tesco website, book your chosen slot and then continue on with your food shopping online as normal. A handy piece of information to note is that you can make any changes to your order up until your selected slot.

For home delivery, you can choose between a 'fixed one hour slot' or a 'flexi saver slot', meaning Tesco will provide you with a one-hour window on the day of your delivery. Meanwhile, the click & collect service doesn't offer the flexible option, just a one-hour window that you can choose.

What dates are available and do they cost money?

As of writing, Tesco's Christmas food slots are available from November 12, right up until December 20 for home delivery, while click & collect still has dates up until December 22.

There are mornings, afternoons and evenings available, yet some are starting to be booked up, so we'd advise acting fast. It is worth mentioning that slots do come with a price-tag, depending on the customer.

For regular shoppers, prices form home delivery range between £3 to £7, depending on the time and date you have selected. Meanwhile, click & collect is a little cheaper, with prices costing between just £1 and £3.

What is a Tesco Delivery Saver Pass?

For anyone who doesn't want to pay for their online food shopping anymore, not just as Christmas, then it's worth considering Tesco's Delivery Saver Pass.

This monthly subscription means that you no longer have to pay for your online slot. The supermarket charges just £4.99 a month for a six month 'off-peak' pass, while its 'Anytime' pass is priced at £7.99 per month for six months.

The pass is also available for the click & collect service, coming to £2.49 per month for six months. However, one thing to take into account is if you do your weekly shopping online enough to justify the costs and you can find more information on the Tesco website here.
