Tesco Introduces Weekend Free Delivery for Whoosh Orders Over £25
Tesco is implementing a significant new policy for its rapid delivery service that will benefit shoppers across the UK. Starting tomorrow, the supermarket giant will offer free deliveries on all Whoosh orders exceeding £25 throughout the weekend period.
Details of the New Delivery Policy
From Friday 23rd January through to Sunday 25th January, Tesco will remove the standard £2.99 delivery fee from all qualifying Whoosh orders. This initiative makes it more convenient than ever for customers to receive their essential items delivered directly to their doorstep in as little as twenty minutes. The company has confirmed that it does not charge any additional service fees for utilising its rapid delivery service.
How the Offer Works for Customers
Shoppers who place orders through the Tesco Whoosh service will see the £2.99 delivery fee automatically deducted at the checkout stage for baskets totalling £25 or more. This saving will appear clearly as "Offer savings" on order receipts. It is important to note that orders under £15 will still incur a minimum basket charge of £2.50 and will not qualify for the free delivery promotion.
Enhanced Shopping Flexibility
Beyond the rapid delivery option, Tesco Whoosh now provides customers with the ability to book delivery slots for later the same day. This feature offers greater flexibility in how people manage their grocery shopping, particularly useful for those planning cosy nights in during the colder January weather.
Executive Commentary on the Initiative
Jillian Lidgate, Tesco Online Customer Director, commented: "Delivered fast, Tesco Whoosh is here to make it easier to get all those cosy night essentials without braving the cold. We recognise that January can often feel like a gloomy month, and we hope that by removing delivery fees on Whoosh orders over £25 we can help brighten things up for our customers this weekend."
Availability and Access Points
The Whoosh service is accessible through both the Tesco Grocery & Clubcard application and the company's official website in selected geographical areas. The option to schedule same-day delivery slots is currently available at participating stores. Customers can browse a comprehensive selection of everyday necessities, fresh produce, snacks, beverages, and other household items through the platform.
