I lost my sunburst Yamaha FG-series acoustic guitar yesterday around 3pm near the UF Bookstore on University Ave in downtown Gainesville. It's a standard dreadnought size, glossy sunburst with a couple of light scratches on the lower bout. There's a small dent on the headstock and a faded circular sticker inside the soundhole. A black strap with a white lightning-bolt design is still attached. This guitar has been with me through countless practice sessions and is my main instrument for rehearsals; it’s sentimental and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, please message me—I’d be forever grateful.
I lost my blue plastic contact lens case this afternoon around 3pm. I was at the Publix on Archer Road in Gainesville, and I must have dropped it while packing groceries. It's a small rectangular case, bright blue with a white prescription label taped to the bottom. The left lid has a tiny crescent-shaped scratch that catches the light, and there's a small red heart sticker on the bottom edge for easy identification. Inside was one grey contact lens with a faint blue tint, which is really annoying to replace on short notice. I wear these every day, so I’d really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my 14K yellow gold ring yesterday around 3pm near Library West on the UF campus, around 13th Street and West University Ave in Gainesville. It's a slim 5mm band with a small round diamond bezel-set, and there's an engraving on the inside that reads 'A.K.' beside a tiny heart. The ring has sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to have it returned and can arrange a meetup through the app.
Lost my black Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near Library West on University Ave in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's a slim bifold, about 4.5x3.5 inches, pebbled leather with a tiny gold Coach logo on the front. Inside are my Florida driver's license, two debit cards, UF student ID, and a faded photo of my grandma. Notable markers: the inner card slot is stamped with gold initials MB and there's a small coffee stain on the back corner. This wallet has sentimental value and I really need it back.
I lost my framed abstract painting yesterday around 3pm near the CVS on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's an 18x24 inch piece in a matte black metal frame, with bold blue, teal, and gold swirls on white canvas. The back has a tiny label with the artist's name, 'Mira Alvarez, 2022', and there's a small dent in the bottom left corner of the frame. There's also a faint coffee ring along the lower edge from a coffee break I grabbed afterward. It holds sentimental value—my sister gifted it to me when I moved here—and I really need to get it back.
I found a silver Yamaha flute this morning around 8:10am outside the CVS on University Ave near UF, in Gainesville (North Central FL). It's in a black hard case with a blue lining. The instrument is a student model, about 26 inches long, with a few cosmetic scratches on the foot joint and a small dent near the lip plate; the case has a cracked latch. Inside the lid there’s a faded sticker with the initials 'L.M.' and the date '2017,' which might help identify the owner. If this sounds like yours, email me at [email protected] with a brief description or photo, and we can arrange a safe return.
I found a blue Samsonite suitcase this afternoon by the cart return outside the Target on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's a 24-inch hard-shell with a small dent at the bottom corner and a red luggage tag that reads 'Road Trip' along with a lighthouse sticker on the lid. The zipper pulls are intact and the inside lining is gray-blue, with a few receipts tucked in the pocket. There's a set of initials 'MR' scratched on a leather tag near the handle, which might help identify the owner. I’d really like to see it back with its rightful owner—if this sounds like yours, tell me and we’ll figure out how to reunite it.
I found a blue hardcover novel with a gold spine this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Reitz Union on University Avenue in Gainesville, North Central FL. The cover is a bit scuffed and the dust jacket has a small orange sticker from a bookstore on the back. Inside the front cover there’s a yellow sticky note with the name 'Maya Patel' and a Gainesville address, plus a local library due-date card. It feels like this book belongs to a student, and I’d really like to get it back to its owner. If this is yours, share the title and the identifying note so we can confirm.
I found a blue Trek mountain bike this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Reitz Union on Museum Road, Gainesville. It’s a medium frame with Shimano gears, a bright orange water bottle strapped to the frame, and a Go Gators sticker on the seat tube. There’s a small dent in the front fork and a scuff on the left crank, but otherwise it looks rideable. If this sounds like yours, point out a distinguishing feature and we can meet up near the UF Bookstore or the Reitz Union circle to swap.
I found a Nintendo Switch OLED sitting on a bench behind Library West near University Ave in Gainesville this afternoon, around 3:15pm, in North Central FL. It's in a white dock with neon red/blue Joy-Cons and a dragon sticker on the back of the protective case. The screen looks clean with a thin protector, and there's a small scuff on the right Joy-Con. If this sounds like yours, the sticker detail should help identify it, and the battery level was around 60% when I found it.
