In this tutorial, we examine Shoppingslot.co.uk, a service which simultaneously searches leading U.K. supermarkets for available delivery slots, removing the need for users to search for slots individually, saving considerable time and effort in a congested marketplace. With the entry of nothing more than a postcode, we are able to see at a glance the availability of delivery slots in our area, and transfer immediately to the relevant store to book a slot.
Whilst this tool is used to identify slots, it remains our responsibility to confirm that slot with the relevant supermarket, and it should be noted that this service can only indicate availability, and is not a means to secure, reserve or create a slot, as these functions belong to the supermarkets themselves.
