Is there a better fix for this or just something I'll have to live
with...bending the prongs on all my cords.

Thanks,

One other option: You can get a 6-outlet adaptor that plugs into a dual
outlet. You remove the existing faceplate, plug in the outlet multiplier,
and afix the new outlet with the screw that formerly held the outlet's
faceplate.

Oh I get it! You plug something into a loose outlet and then screw it
in place so it doesn't fall out. Don't worry about vibration or
movement of the device's prongs sitting in the loose outlet...as long
as it doesn't fall out, it's OK.

And look! I can now plug six things into a loose outlet while before I
could only do two.

What a great idea!

Not!
