Just stop in at your local Radio Shack, electronics store, or even Wal-Mart or Target. I often see them in the areas that sell cords, or in the luggage and travel sections.

Not any more dangerous than running it on 110V. I've been using my laptops on 220 allllllll day long for the last 8 years and have never had a power related problem. Keep in mind mty laptops were all purchased from the US and brought down to Chile and none of them even had a gound.
