Hey there, most stores such as "AutoZone" or "Pep Boys" now offer free battery charging service. You can remove the battery (very simple, just loosen the terminals and take it out). and take it to them. It usually takes them about and hour or two. Or, you can buy a new one. OR you can get a jump from a friend. I recommend taking it to have it charged so that you know you have started out from a fully charged battery. If you jump start it, run the car for at least 20 minutes before shutting it back off.

good luck and hope that helps!!!!
