Family of 4 all using mobile in Portugal - help please

Hi all,
In a while we are travelling to Portugal, and 4 of the family have mobile phones - I would prefer that all 4 of us use a different overseas PAYG sim, rather than our UK ones with roaming (and possible shock bills). This way, we still all have our contacts, access to camera, apps and use of free wifi in the bars etc...
Please can anyone suggest which PAYG sims would be best. (NB 1 is an iphone, so needs the smaller sim)
It would be great if we could also get free calls to one another whilst there.
Any advice welcomed...
Thanks very much
Matt

Sainsburys PAYG sims have no roaming charges in Portugal so charges would be same as in UK.

I lived somewhere like that, it was Cr*p. If you don't want to use the internet or mobiles don't but some of of have elderly relatives to keep in touch with, businesses to run and lives to live and communications are a PART of this.Turning left avoids some of the idiots (only some)0
