Customers will be able to pre-order turkeys when the first delivery slots open, with last orders being taken on December 14.

This comes as Asda looks to make it easier for customers to spread the cost of Christmas amid the ongoing cost of living crisis.

Simon Gregg, senior vice president of e-commerce, said: "We know that customers are thinking about ways they can spread the cost of Christmas this year.

To help these shoppers get a head start with preparations we’re releasing our delivery slots earlier than ever.

What is an Asda Delivery Pass?

The Asda delivery pass is a way customers can save money on their grocery delivery costs.

Instead of paying a delivery charge each time, you can make a one-off annual payment or choose a pay-monthly plan to spread the cost.

You will need to have an Asda grocery account to sign up for a pass and once you have paid it will be immediately available to use.

There is a minimum order of £40 and use is limited to one day.

At the moment an anytime 12-month pass is £6.50 per month, or for a midweek pass, it is £3.50.

If you would prefer to make a one-off payment an anytime 12-month pass costs £65 and a midweek 12-month pass costs £35.

Perks to signing up include next-day delivery, recurring booking slots, priority access to slots and free next-day collection on click and collect.

It also comes with a savings guarantee meaning that if you have not saved money at the end of the year by using the pass, Asda will refund the difference in a voucher.
