Keep in mind when powering both RaspberryPi from the same powerbrick: some chargers briefly turn the power off and restart the charging when connecting or disconnecting another device. Some do this only between the same type of ports but frequently restarting your RaspberryPi is probably not what you want.

Anker Prime Charger (250W, 6 Ports, GaNPrime): $169.99 but there's a $30 code that shows up for me, which brings it to one penny below your $140 too steep threshold.
The link seems to immediately redirect me to https://ca.ugreen.com/ Maybe they configured their region settings in a weird way.
Would you have a screenshot of the product maybe? :)
I know some power bars have USB-C on them, would you need to charge all 6 devices at once or only one at a time?
Well that's odd!
Here you go:
For anybody just casually interested but with lesser needs than OP, I bought a 65W supply to replace a phone charger I forgot at a hotel and I've been very happy with it. Don't just buy a single port replacement if you fuck up at check out like I did lol. Here's what I bought: https://a.co/d/2TKDE2G and it's $40 right now.
It has 3 ports total, 2 USB C and 1 USB A. The only issue is that it doesn't come with cables, so I also bought a 3 pack of 2m USB C to USB C cables. No complaints.
