"newer" autos have a USB port that will charge a phone (I did)
Almost every store has a rack of chargers. Phone is like 9 watts? Short of incompatibility of some unknown sort, everything seems to work.
Nearby grocery store has them.
Computers ALL have USB. They will charge a phone.
Some power strips have USB as well as 120 volt power outlets.
I also have a couple of lanterns that have USB power jacks.

I hope you find a solution quickly.

Wish I could email you one!
A big grocery or department or hardware store might have one.
Good luck.

First time in 2 months. Just doing a “ stock up” trip, and I said to myself,

“Couple charger cords”

, but , there was a fight in Walmart, so i just left and got a haircut instead.
