An ApplesScript that refreshes the Amazon.com Whole Foods cart page every minute and notifies you once it finds an open delivery slot.
This was created because coronavirus pandemic has caused a surge in demand for grocery delivery services making it nearly impossible to find an open delivery slot and I didn't want to keep refreshing the page.

- Log into your Amazon account in Safari.
- Fill your Whole Foods cart and try to check manually. Stop once you've arrived at the page saying no slots are available.
- Open script and click the play button to run. You can now minimize the script window to hide it while it runs.
It will open a new window with the amazon checkout page, and minimize that window so that it can run in the background. You'll be notified when a slot frees up. Don't quit Safari or let your computer fall asleep, or the program will stop. If you want it to run while you are away from your computer, I recommend downloading the Caffeine app to keep your Mac awake, then turning the volume all the way up so you can hear when it finds a slot.
Slots seem to open up at midnight in each time zone so you may get lucky just reloading the checkout page manually then.
