Default Cigarette lighter power outlets dont work anymore

Today when I went to plug in my cell phone charger I noticed a dime in the power outlet so used a screw driver to fish it out. After that none of the power outlets worked in the car. I am not very car technical but i tried pulling out and resetting the fusesbecause I figuted that might fix it but to no avail. Is there any way to easily fixthis? I drive a 95 v6by the way...

Just to make sure I got it right.... the only fuses are the different colored numbered (like 20, 40, 50, etc) ones right? Should I pull the two black squares out? Sorry for all this but once again I am not good with cars...

Yes that is correct. Don`t worrry about the black squares. Sounds like your looking in the power dist box under the hood. The fuse you are looking for is inside the car under the dash on the drivers side.
