Anker Type C to USB 2.0 Type A: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Y0K51PU/

Anker Type C to USB 3.0 Type A: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0119EIHTG/

Both are currently out of stock, which might be why you didn't find them. I was told by someone I know that asked Anker that they should be back in stock before the end of November.

Do you know of any tool/extension/thing that will auto-redirect me to smile instead of the regular one, I always forget to go there myself.

Only because you ask, my company at https://givingassistant.org/coupon-codes/amazon.com has a deal with Amazon that donates 1.5% on top of their 0.5% to make it a full 2%, with no category restrictions. Start shopping here and we direct you to smile as a starting point. Free, and if I don't have your charity on file, ask and I'll add it.

Since I already use it for other things, I use https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/requestly/mdnleldc...

Just have a rule that changes www.amazon.com to smile.amazon.com and it works for me.
