Where to get Virgin starter pack/simcard?

[Sensorei]

Im keen to get a Virgin mobile simcard for use in my backup phone so that I can make use of the 60c/MB EDGE/GPRS. Where can I get one without driving 20km to find one in Cape Town? I have looked in a few supermarkets and shops with no luck.

Woolworths, Checkers/Shoprite, Virgin shops. Are you sure you really want Virgin?

The 60c/MB is a great. I'll be using the phone for 90% for email and browsing. I've heard that their Edge speeds have been good lately in Cape Town. Is Virgin thaaat bad? I know their customer service is nonexistant but I wont be on a contract.

If you're disciplined about your data usage the 60c/MB is quite good. They've been experiencing quite a lot of downtime with data recently, though.

Wrong forum, but anyway you can get a Virgin starter pack for R1.99 at Edgars, or was it R2.99 anyway the parking will cost you more than the starter pack.
