Default Buying UK SIM cards in store

Hi,
I bought a couple of second-hand mobile phones to use while my family
is in the UK on holiday. I was wondering if anyone can let me know how
much an Orange and a T-Mobile Pay-As-You-Go SIM card in if I buy it in
the shop. I can't use my credit card on their websites because I don't
have a UK billing address!!
Cheers for your help!

The smaller local type shops usually have them for £3, other places can
be £5 to £10.

Orange SIM's are free in any Orange Shop - you just need to pay for
your first top-up.

Orange SIMs are free from any orange shop, you just have to put £5
credit on.

ebay is your best bet. I am in the US and have bought several UK sims
on ebay UK. Most of them will ship outside UK.
