My mum's going on holiday in the next 30 minutes and I've managed to lose the 4GB SD card I was supposed to be lending her for her camera.

So she needs one sharpish. Anywhere likely to be open now? I assume there'll be some at extortionate prices in the airport (Gatwick) but an alternative would be handy.


Help. Please.

Just found there's an Express near me that opens till 11. Are they likely to stock SD cards though?

The airport will have a tax free Dixons or something. She'll pay top dollar, but problem sorted.

Guess I'm just spoiled with ones that stay open until later.

Airport Dixons as was already mentioned would be my next choice.

They're not that extortionate at the airport in my experience. smile

I swallowed a 4mb HD card for a bet once. Couldn't manage a 16mb, not just after dinner.

Thanks for the suggestions.
She was in a bit of a hurry so looks like she'll be getting one in Dixons or when she arrives (do they have digital cameras in Turkey yet? wink)

You seem to forget most 24 hour supermarkets are still bound by Sunday trading laws.
