You can get reimbursed for anything you needed to buy - phone charger, clothes, toiletries, etc. I believe they cover up to $100/day(?) when your baggage is delayed up to 3 days, and then it jumps to an automatic $1500 if delayed for longer.

I have been reimbursed (with receipts) flying back to the USA (my home) from europe, but not to my home airport, and I flew back a few days later to my home airport on a separate ticket. Did not get the 1500 cash option though as it was not over 3 days.
For some reason, I always thought they don't cover if it is lost on the leg back to your home airport. I could be wrong though.
