Lost: Student ID near Imperial Valley Mall.
I lost my student ID around 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday near the fountain at Imperial Valley Mall in El Centro, Imperial County. It’s a slim card with my photo and a campus sticker—something I need every day for class and buses. I must have set it down while I was grabbing a snack at the food court, and I didn’t notice until I reached the bus stop. My stomach dropped; I’ve got a big week of finals coming up and I can’t afford to be without it. If someone turned it in somewhere here on the site, please let me know.
Found DVDs at Imperial Valley Mall parking lot
On Saturday around 5:42 PM, I was walking through the Imperial Valley Mall parking lot in El Centro when I spotted a small stack of DVDs tucked behind a bench near a planter. I picked them up and saw a mix of titles, from light comedies to action flicks, with a few cases a bit scuffed and one stained with a coffee ring. It felt like a small mystery, but also a reminder that someone out there is probably missing their movie night. I brought them home and posted them here, hoping the rightful owner will recognize the covers and claim them on this site.
Lost travel adapters in Imperial County
I was at the Imperial Valley Mall around 6:30 pm yesterday, walking between the food court and the benches near the cinema when I realized my travel adapters were missing from the small gray pouch. The two adapters are universal plugs, one with a blue stripe and the other with a plain black cap. They were essential for charging my phone and GPS as I drive through the desert toward the coast, and I am anxious about the rest of my trip without them. If anyone picked them up, I would be grateful to have them back.
Blue US passport in black leather holder found
Found a blue US passport this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind the Walmart on Main Street in El Centro, Imperial County. The passport is in good condition, with a navy blue cover and gold lettering. It’s tucked inside a black leather passport holder with a faded gold eagle stamp on the front, and there’s a tiny hummingbird sticker tucked into the inside cover—that little detail stood out to me. I know this is important and I’d really like to get it back to its owner. If this is yours, send me a message here to arrange pickup.
Teal ceramic desert owl sculpture with gold speckles
I lost my teal ceramic desert owl sculpture this afternoon around 2:45 pm. It's about 6 inches tall, teal glaze with tiny gold speckles, and it has a hand-painted desert scene along the belly. The base is signed 'M. Chen' and there's a tiny chip on the left wing, plus a faint crack along the back. I last saw it near the fountain by the Imperial Valley Mall on Main Street in El Centro, then I stopped at a coffee shop inside the mall for a few minutes. This piece was a gift from my grandmother and it's really sentimental to me; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
Bearded dragon missing in Imperial County
I lost my bearded dragon yesterday around 3pm near the Imperial Valley Mall in El Centro, behind the food court. It's roughly 10 inches long from nose to tail, sandy tan with darker cross-bands along the back. It has a tiny white patch on its throat and a microchip with ID 45219. This little guy was a gift from my daughter and means a lot to us, so I’m really hoping someone found him and kept him safe.
Red Le Creuset Dutch oven with lid
I lost my red Le Creuset 4-quart enamel cast-iron dutch oven yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Imperial Avenue in El Centro. The pot is vibrant red with a black interior; there’s a tiny chip on the rim and the lid knob has a hairline crack. Inside the lid, there’s a faded note with my initials 'P.P.' that I tucked away years ago. It’s sentimental; it was a wedding gift from my grandmother and I reach for it when I cook comfort meals for my family. If found, please contact me—I’d be really grateful to have it back to keep making memories.
Emerald leopard gecko with yellow spots
I lost my emerald gecko yesterday around 3pm near the Imperial Valley Mall parking lot, behind the food court on N. Imperial Ave in El Centro. It's a small leopard gecko about 5 inches long, with an emerald green body, dark brown spots, and a pale yellow belly. There’s a tiny nick on its tail and a faint scar near the left jaw. It usually lived in a clear glass terrarium with a bright blue lid. This little guy is my daughter's rescue pet and it's really special to us—if you see him, email me at [email protected]; we'd be deeply grateful.
Found two concert tickets near Imperial Valley Mall
Found a pair of printed concert tickets this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Imperial Valley Mall on Imperial Avenue in El Centro. They’re for a local show by The Desert Suns and are white with a bright blue border; one ticket has a red VIP stamp in the upper-right corner. They look a bit crumpled from being on the ground, but the event date is visible and the barcode is intact. They’re clearly physical tickets, not digital, with perforated edges. Tickets can be sentimental or a gift, and I’d really like to see them back with the owner. If you know who they belong to, tell me how to reach you.
Found: small black Lab mix with blue collar
I found this dog this afternoon around 2:30pm in the parking lot behind the Imperial Valley Mall on Imperial Avenue in El Centro. It's a small black Labrador mix, about knee-high, with a blue nylon collar and a white patch on its chest. There's a round tag on the collar with the name 'Rex' and a phone number that I can't quite read from here, and the dog seemed friendly but a bit anxious. I'm hoping to reunite him with his owner—if you recognize him, message me here and we can arrange a safe meet-up near the mall's north entrance.
Blue cycling helmet found near Imperial Valley Mall
I found a blue cycling helmet with a black visor this afternoon around 2:15 pm in the parking lot behind the Imperial Valley Mall on Holt Avenue, El Centro. It's a Bell helmet, size Medium, with white interior padding that shows a bit of sweat smell. There's a small scrape on the left side of the shell and a sticker on the back that reads 'Valley Cycling Club'. I figured someone riding around Imperial County might be missing it, so I posted here in case the owner recognizes the features. If this rings a bell, please reach out with distinguishing marks like the sticker or the size and where you ride most mornings.
Silver-tone necklace with heart pendant
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my silver-tone necklace was missing while I was walking near the Imperial Valley Mall on Main Street in El Centro, Imperial County. It's a 16-inch silver-tone chain with a delicate heart pendant; on the back there's an initial 'A' engraved, and a tiny star charm sits near the clasp. The pendant is slightly scratched and the chain has a light tarnish from wear, but otherwise it's in decent condition. This necklace is a gift from my grandmother and means so much to me—I'd be heartbroken if I can't get it back. If anyone found it, please contact me; I’d be forever grateful.
Found blue Behringer synthesizer near Imperial Valley Mall
Found a blue Behringer synthesizer this afternoon behind the Imperial Valley Mall, near the Main Street entrance in El Centro. It's a compact desktop model, about 16 inches wide, with a glossy electric-blue case and a black control panel; there are a couple of small scratches along the edge and a galaxy-pattern sticker on the top left corner. On the back panel there's a handwritten label that reads 'For Jake' and a tiny sticker with the serial number. I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner—if you see this, please reach out so we can get it back to you.
Blue ukulele in black soft case
I lost my blue Kala soprano ukulele yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on Main Street in El Centro, Imperial County. It’s in a black soft case, about 21 inches long, with a light satin finish and a small dent on the bottom edge. There’s a pink flower sticker near the sound hole and a bright orange strap with white polka dots tucked inside the case. This ukulele was a gift from my grandmother and has sentimental value, so I’m really hoping to find it soon. If someone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to have it returned—I’m trying to keep up with weekly practice and it’s become a big part of my routine.
Silver Seiko watch with black dial, initials JA engraved
I found a silver stainless steel Seiko watch with a black dial and a white date window this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Walmart Supercenter on Main Street in El Centro, Imperial County. The 42mm case is in good condition with a brushed bracelet and a few light scratches on the clasp. The back is engraved with the initials JA, and the watch keeps time accurately and the crown action feels solid. It looks like it hasn’t been severely worn, and the band fits a medium wrist. It seems like a cherished piece, and I'm sure the owner would be relieved to have it back. If this sounds like yours, the JA engraving and the dial details should help confirm ownership.
