Lost & found kitchenware in Charlottesville

Lost appliances near Downtown Mall, Charlottesville.

Wednesday morning around 8:45 a.m., I realized my tote with several small appliances was missing after loading groceries by the Downtown Mall in Charlottesville. The tote held a white toaster, a compact blender, and a stainless-steel kettle—practical stuff I use every day. I recall stopping at a coffee shop along Market Street for a quick pickup and then driving off toward Barracks Road, but the bag didn’t make the trip. I’m bummed but hopeful someone might have found it and turned it in. If you happened to spot a gray tote around the Downtown Mall or near University Avenue, please return it; it holds everyday items that mean a lot to me.
