So guess what’s the best thing to happen to me besides the invention of Tesco Online? 
Third row, first on the left. The invention of the Tesco Online mobile app!!! (god I am so auntie right now I should just create a new blog category. In fact, I think I will.) Ok confession time. Using Tesco Online cut my grocery shopping time by 90% and freed up my time to do things like stalk people on Instagram, eat Fighter’s happy puffs, and other constructive things like that. But humans get complacent and take things for granted. And I am human. And very lazy. So whenever it came time to make groceries order, I’d be like, “man, what a chore.” So Tesco Online mobile app is an answer to the dreams I never knew I had! Tesco, you really spoil me. Hahahaha. Here’s why I’m loving the app.
First of all, everything on the Tesco Online website is inserted nicely into this little handy app. Super convenient! It’s laid out very simply and so userly friendly that even Fighter could use it. #waitwhat Click on the Groceries icon and you’ll see…
A list of very self-explanatory grocery categories. Really, just click on whichever suits your fancy and it will pull up sub-categories and then a complete list of products complete with photos.
Adding them to your cart is as easy as tapping the Cart icon on the right. You can also create Shopping Lists for future checkouts. What I really like about the app is that it’s so fast! The Tesco Online website is a website after all, so you have to account for some minimal loading time, not really their fault but depending on your Internet connection. For the lazy (aka me), minimal loading time = too much loading time!!!! So I love that adding to Cart and loading items on the app is instantaneous! 
There’s also a Promotions section which you can click on to check ongoing promos, same as on the website (except much easier). Speaking of promotions, the search function on top lets you not only search for all products, but you can also filter it to search for promotion items only.
The Favorites category lets you add products to your Favorites so you can go back and click on those to purchase them on later shopping trips. I haven’t added any items to my Favorites but I tapped on the Bought tab and it pulled up a list of all the things I’ve ever purchased. D: Yea we eat a lot of eggs. Who’s judging!!!
Another very interesting function is if you look on the top next to the search field, there’s a bar code icon on the far right. Tap on it and it brings you to a camera.
If you use the camera to scan the barcode of a product that’s carried by Tesco, the app finds that product and pulls it up for you. I tried scanning my Mamee Monster pack…
Voila!! Impressive. Fine, barcode scanning technology may have been around forever but I’ve never seen a better way of using it than this. 😀
And what a pleasant surprise this is! Did you know we can pay via credit card online in the near future?! I’m so happy for this because now I don’t need to wait at home with my card to receive the delivery, I can just get our helper (or someone else in the family) to receive the goods and I can just pay online later.
Anyways, I’ve used this app once so far and I love the mega convenience of it!
I actually did my grocery shopping while on my bed with a Fighter lying on top of me. How often do you get to say THAT? 😀 Give it a try yo! Tesco Online MY mobile app is now available on Google Play (sorry iPhone users, wait a while more wtf)

Aud, just wondering if you purchase online, will they send you close to expired or “not so nice” looking vegetables or fruits? I’m waiting for it to be available at my area, can’t wait to check it out too but scare they will send you something not so “fresh or nice” lol
no usually quite good one! but if you don’t like it you can reject on the spot and not get charged.
Wow!! That’s really good service!!!! Can’t wait for my nearby Tesco to have this!!! Actually after reading your first post on Tesco online, I quickly check if it’s available at my area coz wanna show my mum, too bad it’s not and I’m still waiting for it so I can amaze my mum. Lol! ^_^
Hello Audrey, any idea is this gonna be available for iOS user?
How convenient! When is Tesco coming to Singapore !!??
Singapore doesn’t have tesco??
No Tesco here.. There are some other supermarkets that we can go online too, but not as convenient, quite a lot of stuff not available online. Waiting for Tesco to come in!
suppose to be convenient but bad service. [1] reached only call me (delivery guy said he only saw the memo upon reaching my place, that was downstairs). [2] never inform me earlier of the NO STOCK items [3] if buy whole chicken, they won’t cut (delivery guy said, they won’t be able to see the special request, not until the goods are prepared for them to delivery). [4] not punctual.
ooh sorry to hear! 1) what do you mean by didn’t see the memo? what memo?
2) they don’t inform if no stock cos no time I guess. usually they’ll give a very similar replacement or won’t charge you at all. I think it’s fair. 3) I didn’t know they took special requests but I’m fine without getting specialized service cos it’s still more convenient getting goods delivered 4) u mean they arrived after the stated two hour period? if they’re running late due to other deliveries or traffic they will call usually
