@sunshine45: Were you staying at the Hard Rock Casino?  I ask because that's the only hotel in Vegas where I personally saw chargers for sale in the mini bar. Because that casino "specializes" in millennial they also sold lotions, lotions and condoms in their mini bars.

LOL  I'm pretty sure millenials are not the only ones interested in those things.  Actually, I'm 100% certain.

Re: IF. YOU. EVER FORGET YOUR. CHARGER.....

Here is a tip i read a while ago on a Travel Forum - ask at the front desk of your hotel. So many people forget their chargers that the hotel might just have a box of them is the lost and found. Worked for me in Granda, Spain!

I've seen them in convenience stores and CVS too


Be very cautious about those cheap chargers in the bins at convenience and drugstores. They aren't made well and have a history of causing fires.

I don't always buy Apple chargers, but I make sure my chargers and cables are made by a reputable brand (Belkin, Paracable, Anker) and are mfi-fi certified.

Just be careful with the cheapy chargers.  Sometimes they actually can damage your phone.

 

 Good morning! SO glad you mentioned that. Even the chargers that are not cheap can damage your phone if they are not for your phone.That happened to me with my Samsung phone.
