Lost holiday decorations in Janesville
Saturday around 10:15 a.m., I was loading decorations into my car near Janesville’s Rotary Gardens when I realized a bin with our holiday décor had vanished from sight. It held garlands, red bows, a few glass ornaments, and a big star topper—the kind of stuff we drag out every December. The area around the gazebo by the Rotary Gardens felt colder without them, and I’ve been replaying the moment in my head since. They’re part of our family’s Christmas rituals, and I’d be grateful to have them back where they belong.
Lost CDs in Janesville
Those CDs belong to me and I’m hoping for a quick reunion. Around 7:20 PM yesterday, I realized they were missing after I left the Janesville Public Library on North Main Street. I had them in a black backpack while I grabbed a coffee at Cuppa Joe next door and chatted with a friend; the CDs were in a rainbow-stickered jewel case. I’m upset because a few of these tracks are rare prints from college days, and I’ve been replaying memories all day. If you saw a pile of CDs near the library entrance, or a backpack abandoned nearby, I’d be grateful for their return.
Lost: pair of toasters in Janesville
I lost my two toasters last Tuesday around 7:20 p.m. I realized they were gone while I stood in the kitchen of my apartment on North Parker Street, just off Riverside Place by the Rotary Botanical Gardens. I’d left them on the counter while I hurried to bring in groceries, and when I came back they were gone. They’re a humble pair—silver with black knobs, nothing fancy—and I used them every day for quick breakfasts. They were a small, practical link to my mom, who taught me to bake toast, and I’m heartbroken to think they might be far from home.
Found Nintendo Switch with neon Joy-Cons
I found a Nintendo Switch console this afternoon around 2:15 pm tucked under the passenger seat of the parking lot behind the Janesville Mall on Center Street, near GameStop. It's in a gray carrying case with a bright red sticker on the front and neon blue and red Joy-Con controllers attached. The screen is clean, and the device seems in good working order, with a protective screen cover showing a few fingerprints but no cracks. There's a small scratch on the back near the left edge and a custom sticker that looks like a tiny phoenix. I'd be happy to help reunite it with its owner.
Black North Face parka found near library
I found a black North Face parka this afternoon around 2:15 pm behind the Janesville Public Library on Main Street, near the bike racks by the bus stop. It's a men's medium with an orange inner lining and a small tear at the left cuff. There's a white stitched logo on the chest and a blue carabiner clipped to the inner pocket. It smells a bit like rain and looks recently worn, but it's in solid condition overall. If this belongs to you, email [email protected] and we can arrange a pickup.
Pink unicorn plush with rainbow mane
I found a pink unicorn plush this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Riverside Park entrance off Main Street in Janesville. It's about 12 inches tall, soft pink fleece with a bright rainbow mane and a shiny silver horn. There's a teal bow on its left ear and a small blue star sticker on the right hind leg, plus a tag inside that reads 'Aurora.' The toy has a little wear, slightly matted fur from lots of hugging, but otherwise seems well loved. It clearly means a lot to a kid, and I would like to see it back with its owner. If you think this is yours, reply here and we can arrange a safe meetup near City Hall fountain.
Found navy Giro cycling helmet near Janesville Public Library
I found a navy blue Giro cycling helmet this afternoon around 2:45pm, near the bike racks by the Janesville Public Library on Main Street. It’s a medium size, with a white reflective stripe and a small star sticker on the back. There’s a light scuff on the left visor and a bit of dirt from a ride, but it’s in good condition and the strap is intact. The inner pads look clean. If you recognize it, please message me here or email [email protected] so I can get it back to its owner. I know how stressful it is to misplace gear you rely on for weekend rides.
Gray North Face parka with detachable fur hood
I was walking home from the library yesterday afternoon around 3pm and think I lost my gray North Face parka near the coffee shop on Center Street in Janesville. It's a women's size large, dark gray with a detachable faux-fur hood, and there's a small compass pin stitched to the inner left pocket. The zipper on the coat is a bit sticky but otherwise it's in good condition. It has sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back. If you found it, drop me a note here so we can figure out a time to meet up and get it back; I’m really worried about it.
Silver watch with black dial and brown strap
I found a silver Fossil watch this morning around 9:15am near the entrance to the Janesville Public Library on East Court Street. It has a stainless steel case, a black dial with white numerals, and a brown leather strap that's a bit worn. On the back there's a small engraving that looks like 'A.J.' and there's a tiny scratch near the 3 o'clock bezel. It seems to be in decent shape overall. If it's yours, send a message in the app and we can arrange a meetup at the library's front steps.
Beige leather handbag with burgundy scarf
I found this beige handbag this afternoon around 3:15pm outside the Janesville Public Library on Main Street. It's a medium-sized tan real leather bag with gold-tone hardware, and a burgundy floral scarf tied to the handle. There's a small star-shaped pin on the zipper pull, and overall it's in good condition aside from a tiny scuff on the bottom corner. I figured someone must be missing it, so I'm posting here in hopes the owner sees it. If this is yours, let me know a detail only you would know to verify.
Dark brown leather briefcase with initials JR
I lost my dark brown leather briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the Janesville Public Library on Main Street. It's a mid-size case, about 16 inches wide, with scuffed corners and a brass nameplate on the front that reads 'J.R.' Inside there's red lining, a small zipper pocket, and a faded blue notebook plus my laptop charger. The zipper pull has a tiny dent, and there's a luggage tag inside with 'JR' written in marker. This briefcase holds important work documents and was a gift from my mentor—I'm really hoping someone found it and can return it.
Black Fossil watch with blue dial and red second hand
I lost my black Fossil watch yesterday around 3pm while I was at the Junction Market on Center Avenue in Janesville. The watch has a blue dial, a red second hand, and a slightly scratched stainless steel bezel; the strap is black genuine leather with a few creases from daily wear. The 40mm case is engraved with the initials 'AP' on the back. It’s been a daily staple for years and was a gift from my grandmother, so it means a lot to me. If someone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; it has sentimental value and I’ve been worried since yesterday.
Blue Ray-Ban round glasses with tortoiseshell temples
I lost my blue Ray-Ban round glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Janesville. They’re blue metal frames with tortoiseshell-patterned temples, round lenses, and adjustable nose pads. There’s a tiny scratch on the left lens and a small red dot sticker I put on the inside of the right temple for grip. They were a gift from my grandmother, so they’ve got real sentimental value and I’m really hoping they turn up. If you found them, email me at [email protected] and we can sort out getting them back.
Elena Martinez, 28, red jacket missing
I lost my sister Elena Martinez yesterday around 3:15pm in Janesville. She was wearing a forest-green parka, a bright red scarf, and blue jeans, and she wears a silver moon pendant. She has a small bird tattoo on her right inner forearm. The last sighting was near Riverside Park, at the corner of Center Ave and Main St, heading toward the public library. I'm really worried—she has asthma and needs her inhaler, and she might be disoriented alone. If you spot her, please message me here on the site so I can coordinate a safe reunion. Any info helps; I just want her home.
Silver bracelet with emerald charm
I was grabbing a coffee outside the Janesville Public Library on Main Street when it slipped off. It's a delicate 6.5-inch silver-tone chain with a small emerald-teardrop charm that catches the light just right. The inside of the clasp is engraved with the initials KP, and there's a tiny scratch near the clasp—easy details for someone who found it to spot. It feels sentimental because it was a gift from my grandmother, and I've been checking every pocket and bag since yesterday around 3pm. If you happened to find it, I'd be grateful to hear from you.
