What lipo's are you using?
Number of cells and Mah rating?
There are cheap chargers, and good chargers, with prices all over the place.
The "four button" chargers are the most common. A 50W charger is the minimum I'd even consider.
If you have time for a run to Perry GA,(~175mi from Plainville, GA down I-75) there will be a very large Model Show from Feb 28 to March 1
(Friday & Saturday) If you go Saturday, things get bare around noon or one, and vendors start wanting to sell out.

What is your budget? They range from about 10$ to 300$+, do you need AC/DC or a DC only and you provide a 12v batter or power supply.
What voltage and capacity batteries do you need to charge?
Do you plan on moving up to bigger planes or other aspects of RC? If so you may want to purchase a charger that you can grow into as opposed to buying a new one a year down the road.
