Blue Giro road bike helmet with neon stripe

I lost my blue Giro road bike helmet with neon lime stripe yesterday around 3pm. I was riding along University Ave near UF campus, by the Reitz Union and the bike racks outside the library. It's a matte blue Giro Atmos MIPS helmet, size M, with a neon green stripe, black interior padding, and a gray chin strap; there’s a small dent on the front-left edge and a 'Ride Safe' sticker on the back plus two reflective stickers. It was a gift from my sister after my first triathlon, and I really need it back for safety.

Brown leather Coach wallet with ID window

I lost my brown Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm outside the Reitz Union near the campus bookstore on University Ave in Gainesville. It's a brown leather bifold with a small Coach emblem on the lower-right corner and a faint coffee stain on the back. Inside, there’s my driver's license, a few cards, and a tiny photo of my dog tucked in the ID window. This wallet has sentimental value; it was a gift from my mom, and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d be forever grateful.

Red VIP concert ticket stub for Gainesville show

I lost my red VIP concert ticket stub yesterday around 7:15pm near the Reitz Union and the campus Starbucks on University Ave in Gainesville. It's a small rectangular card, bright red with white text and a barcode on the back; the front reads 'Moonlit Waves' in bold letters, and there's a tiny holographic sticker in the lower-right corner. The ticket was for Section 102, Row G, Seat 4, and the edges are a bit creased with a faint coffee stain on the back. It has sentimental value—it's my only copy from the show, and I really need it back to access the event or get a replacement.

Black Anker PowerCore 10000 charger

I lost my Black Anker PowerCore 10000 portable charger yesterday around 3pm. I had it in the student lounge near Norman Hall on the UF campus in Gainesville. It's palm-sized, matte black plastic with a small dent on the bottom edge and a blue star sticker on the side that makes it easy to spot. The Anker logo on the front is slightly worn from daily use. It means a lot to me because I rely on it for back-to-back classes and long study sessions, and it would be a relief to have it back; if anyone finds it, please drop it off at the Norman Hall information desk near the main entrance.

Cream floral quilt with lavender initials

I lost my cream floral quilt yesterday around 3pm in Gainesville, near the UF Bookstore on University Ave, outside the Reitz Union. It's a queen-size cotton quilt with a subtle sun-bleached look and a small snag in the left corner. There's a tiny initials 'LK' stitched in lavender thread along the bottom border, and a light blue ribbon tied in a loose bow on the underside. This quilt was a gift from my grandmother and has sentimental value; I really need it back for comfort during exams.

Blue plush dragon with orange wings

I found a blue plush dragon with orange wings this afternoon around 3:45pm outside the Walmart on Archer Road in Gainesville. It’s about 12 inches tall, super soft, with a tiny white star stitched on its left wing and a pale gray belly. The toy has a small yellow tag near the foot that says 'Playtime Favorite' and it’s a bit wrinkled from sitting on the curb. I picked it up because it looked lonely and maybe someone dropped it while rushing in. If this is yours, give me a detail about the tag or the star on the wing and I’ll help you get it back.

Blue TravelEase neck pillow with teal stripe

I found this blue memory-foam neck pillow this afternoon around 2:15pm on the sidewalk outside the Reitz Union on University Ave in Gainesville. It's a TravelEase neck pillow, royal blue fabric with a teal stripe along the seam, and a small red luggage tag with the initials 'MS' attached. The cover is clean and it's still squishy, not worn much, so I think someone just dropped it while heading to class or the bus. I know it's something travelers rely on, and it would mean a lot to get back to its owner—message me here and we can arrange a quick meetup near the UF campus.

Red leather stamp album with vintage stamps

I found a vintage stamp collection this afternoon around 2:15 pm, tucked inside a red leather-bound album with a brass clasp and a tiny magnifier attached to the spine. It was sitting on a bench behind the downtown Gainesville Post Office on Main Street, not far from City Hall, near the bus stop. Inside, there are stamps dating from the 1920s to the 1940s, including a few German and Japanese issues, plus a pencil note on the inside cover that reads 'No. 17.' The album shows some wear, and a corner is slightly torn, but most stamps are still in decent shape. If this belongs to someone, I’d love to help return it—if you recognize these features, send me a message.

Found a small green anole lizard hiding under leaves in a backyard in Gainesville.

I found a small green anole lizard trying to hide under some leaves in my backyard in Gainesville. It looks healthy and appears to be recently lost, as it's very alert. I have a soft spot for reptiles, so I took it in for the time being. If this is your lizard, please reach out!
