Where to buy an adaptor and load up a sim card (self.hongkong)

As i said on my earlier post, i'll be visiting HK soon; I used to live here a long time ago. When i first came, I bought an adaptor (for electronics charging) from some guy near HKU for $1, he had them all in a box near the door, but I can't remember the place now. I can't remember how I loaded up my sim card either - I will just be in town for a week but I'll be working so my main thing is that i'll need quite a bit of data and maybe make some local phone calls.

Anyone have recommendations where to buy an adaptor and how to load up a sim card? Thank you!

SIM card are really easy here. $33 HKD at 7-11 will get you about 50GB data (I think with even more data at slower speed). Chungking mansions always has tons of adaptors and stuff like that for a good price.

SIM card: 7-11 Adaptor - It depends where you will be staying, any market will have them, sham shui po, wan chai computer market, mong kok phone market (Sin Tat Plaza) all will have.
