I lost my Florida state ID card yesterday around 3:15pm near the Starbucks on University Ave by UF campus in North Central FL. It's tucked in a navy leather cardholder inside a clear sleeve, and there's a small blue star sticker on the back to help me spot it. The card has a faint coffee ring on the corner and a slight crease along the bottom edge from it riding around in my pocket after a spill. This ID is essential for campus access, library login, and cafeteria transactions, and I really need it back to keep my class schedule on track. If you found something matching this description around the UF campus area, please reach out here.
I lost my blue inhaler yesterday around 3pm near the main entrance of UF Health Shands Hospital on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central FL. It's in a white plastic case about the size of a paperback pill bottle, with a tiny red heart sticker on the label and my initials 'P.P.' etched on the back in black marker. I've had this inhaler for years and use it daily; I'm anxious about missing it because I'm headed to a doctor's appointment this week and can't replace it easily. If someone found it, please drop it off at the North Central Florida Lost & Found or message me; I really need it back, it helps me breathe during sudden asthma flare-ups.
I lost my light blue queen duvet cover set yesterday around 3pm near Library West on the UF campus in Gainesville, North Central FL. It's a Bare Home 100% cotton duvet cover with a hidden zipper and crisp white piping—the fabric is soft, but a little wrinkled from being in my dorm laundry bag. In the bottom corner there's a small monogram 'LJ' in navy thread and a tiny coffee stain near the zipper, which are my only identifying features. This set was a wedding gift and really means a lot to me; I’d be grateful to get it back. If you found it, please ping me here or I can meet up near the library.
I lost my black Giro bike helmet with a neon strap yesterday around 3pm near the UF campus bookstore on University Ave in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It's a medium-sized helmet, matte black shell with a bright lime-green chin strap and a small scratch on the left side from a fall last week, plus a tiny lightning-bolt sticker on the back. I bike to classes every day and this helmet is my daily safety gear while riding around the Archer Road bike lanes and campus streets. It also has sentimental value—it's a gift from my mom when I started commuting to campus, so losing it has me really worried about safety. If someone found it, please drop it off at the campus Lost & Found near the Reitz Union in Gainesville; I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my keys yesterday around 3pm near the Publix on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central FL. It's a blue nylon lanyard with a red plastic fob, about 5 keys, and a small brass bottle opener. Distinctive bits include a tiny enamel owl charm on the ring and a chipped enamel coffee cup sticker on one key, plus the lanyard is a little frayed at the clasp. This set has sentimental value to me because the car key opens my grandmother's Buick, and I really need it back.
I found a JBL Charge 4 portable Bluetooth speaker this afternoon around 3:15 pm behind the Publix at Butler Plaza on Archer Road in Gainesville. It's matte black with a bright orange silicone sleeve that really makes it stand out, and there are a few scratches along the bottom edge from a tumble in the cart corral. The USB-C charging cable is still attached, and there’s a small dent near the JBL logo by the grill—that little mark might help you spot it. It was just sitting upright on the ground near the bike racks by the pharmacy entrance; I figured someone must be missing it. If this is yours, I’m happy to help reunite you—drop a note here and we’ll coordinate through the app.
I found a Nintendo Switch OLED model this afternoon around 3:45pm behind the Regal Cinemas on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It’s in good condition, the screen is bright with no scratches, and it comes with the white docking station and a blue carrying case. The console has neon red/blue Joy-Cons and a small paw-print sticker on the back I noticed when I picked it up. There’s also a tiny lightning-bolt sticker on the top edge of the protective skin—that should help the owner spot it quickly. If this is yours, I’m hoping to reunite you with it soon.
I found a black Bose SoundLink Mini speaker this afternoon around 3:15 pm behind the Target on Archer Road in Gainesville, North Central FL. It's palm-sized with a matte black finish, a small dent on the top-left edge, and a clean fabric grille. There's a tiny sticker on the back with a serial ending in 482, in case that helps. It powered on when I pressed the power button and connected to my phone, so it still sounds clear. If this belongs to you, I’m happy to coordinate pickup at the Target lot on Archer Road or a nearby public spot.
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.
