I was at the Starbucks on Main Street in downtown Merced yesterday around 3pm and I must have left my headphones on a chair outside. They’re Sony WH-1000XM4, matte black, in good condition with a bit of wear on the headband. The right earcup has a small dent, and I added a tiny white star sticker to the inside of the headband for my own reminders. The blue zippered carrying case with a white Sony logo is part of the set and sits with a frayed zipper pull. This was a gift from my mom and it means a lot to me, so I’d really appreciate any help in getting them back. If you find them, please email me at the address above.
I lost my black Anker PowerCore 10000 portable charger yesterday around 3pm near the UC Merced Library, behind the student bike racks. It’s a compact, matte black rectangle about the size of a lipstick case, with a bright orange sun-shaped sticker on the back and a small dent on the bottom edge. It still powers my phone, so it’s essential for long study days between classes. It has sentimental value because it was a gift from my sister last year. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—thanks so much.
I lost my beige 24-inch Samsonite rolling suitcase yesterday around 3pm near the Merced Transit Center on G Street by 14th Street. It’s a hard-shell suitcase with some scuffs on the corners and a bright blue luggage tag with the initials 'PM' dangling from the handle, plus a red fabric strap I wrapped around the middle to keep the wheels from wobbling. Inside are everyday clothes, a small photo album, and my grandmother's keepsake locket—stuff with real sentimental value I can't replace. I really need it back; it holds irreplaceable memories and some important documents. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back; I can meet you somewhere in Merced to collect it.
I was out for practice yesterday around 3pm when I realized my neon green Nike soccer cleats were missing. They’re size 9.5, neon green with a black swoosh and a white sole, and the left shoe has a tiny tear near the toe with the laces a bit frayed. I left them on a bench outside the gate by the Merced High School football field, near 7th Street and G Street, after drills. They’re pretty important to me—my only reliable pair for practice—and they’ve got sentimental value because my coach gave me a pep talk there last season. If you found them, please reach out; I’d be really grateful to get them back.
I’m missing my DeWalt 20V cordless drill, yellow and black, with a worn rubber grip and a magnetic bit holder. I last had it yesterday around 3pm in the Walmart parking lot on G Street in Merced, while I was loading groceries; I must have set it down and walked away. The drill is a bit battered from use, with a small dent on the top cap and the XR battery showing some wear. It was a gift from my dad and I rely on it for weekend projects, so I’d be grateful to get it back if anyone found it.
I found these this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Mall on G Street. It’s a blue fabric lanyard with a small panda keychain and about six keys, plus a slightly scratched car key with a red tag that reads D-12. The lanyard is a bit frayed and one key looks like a house key from Schlage; they’re a little dusty but overall in decent shape. They felt important, and I’d be really glad to get them back to their owner—if these are yours, drop a note in the app and we can arrange a meetup near the Merced Mall entrance.
I found a leopard gecko this afternoon around 2:15 pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Mall on G Street. It’s about 4 inches long from head to tail, tan with brown spots and a pale yellow belly. It has a small white scar on the left side of its neck and a slightly kinked tail tip—nice little details to help ID it. It seemed healthy and curious, so I kept it on a towel in a ventilated container with a tiny dish of water. If this is your pet, I’d love to help get it back home—bring a photo or a quick detail to confirm ownership.
I found a Wilson tennis racket lying near the bike racks outside the Merced Mall on G Street this afternoon around 2:30pm. It’s a mid-size racquet with a black frame and orange accents, and the grip is wrapped in a neon-yellow overgrip. There’s a small cat sticker on the throat and a tiny dent near the throat, but otherwise it’s in decent shape. If this belongs to someone, drop me a message on the app and we’ll work out a pickup—I'd really like to get it back to its owner.
I found a green paperback mystery novel this morning around 9am outside the Merced Library on 21st Street. The cover is bright green with a silhouette of a detective, and the spine shows a crease from being shelved and reread. The title reads Shadows on Main, and there are dog-eared pages around chapter 12. On the back cover there’s a pale blue sticker with the initials 'J.S.' and a small pencil note that says 'Merced Book Club'—two distinctive marks that might help identify it. It’s in decent shape overall, just a bit worn from daily use.
I found a navy blue canvas tote with a tan leather bottom and brass zipper this afternoon around 3:45pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Mall on G Street, near the food court. It has a small light-blue enamel pin in the shape of a whale on the front pocket, and the inside lining is bright yellow and white stripes. Inside there’s a gray notebook with a doodle on the cover and a reusable water bottle. It seems sentimental and probably used daily; I’d love to get it back to its owner if you think this might be yours.
