Much of a muchness in the UK, especially so in London (I assume you mean Romford - Rumford is in Cornwall if memory serves).

You can get a stick with 1GB of data for about £20/$35 from most supermarkets or phone shops. Eg http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.207-7408.aspx

Yep, it's Romford, my bad. In fact, I'll be very close to a Tesco store, so I can buy this there.

Make sure the Tesco you are near has these (maybe phone up or paste up the branch and I'll do a quick check for you). Not all Tesco stores are created equal - there are Tesco Metro stores are really only food, Tesco Extra carry pretty much everything (food, clothes, TVs, laptops, mobile phones etc), plain old Tesco stores might have an aisle or two of AV/electronics.
