If you're looking for data, there is a special EE SIM pack that provides 10 Gbytes for £15, which seems like the best deal. Though you have to go to a real EE store to get one of these.

The exact info on the packet:

EE PAYG 4G NFC Combi SIM 03-13

Otherwise, at any Sainsbury Local or TESCO Express, you'll find Orange, Virgin, EE SIM, Vodafone cards for £1, but you'll have to top up right away to start using it. Voice and texts are all pretty cheap, though the data is where you might start to run short.

Seems unlikely that there would be a spare (because now is when everyone wants one). But maybe Sam's bulk order has some left still.

There's already a SIM card thread on this list in the last week. I suggest checking there (and replying there) for more details on others recent experiences acquiring SIM cards.
