I lost my hand-painted blue-and-white ceramic sculpture yesterday around 3pm. It's about 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide, with a glossy glaze and a tiny crack along the base. The piece has cobalt blue swirling patterns and an etched 'LM' on the bottom, plus a small sun sticker. I had it on a display shelf at the outdoor market near Bubblegum Alley on Higuera Street in San Luis Obispo. It was a gift from my grandmother and holds sentimental value—I'm really hoping to get it back.
I lost my red Santa hat with white faux fur trim yesterday around 3pm in San Luis Obispo. I was near Mission Plaza, walking along Monterey Street toward Bubblegum Alley when I realized it was gone. It's a knit red hat with a soft white fur band and a tiny brass jingle bell on the brim. The inner lining is black and shows a bit of wear, and I stitched a small green enamel snowflake pin along the inner seam as a distinctive touch. It has sentimental value—my sister gave it to me last Christmas—and I really need it back.
Lost my black leather Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Higuera Street, downtown San Luis Obispo. It's a slim bifold, about the size of a deck of cards, with a slightly worn top edge and a small gold Coach logo plate on the outside front corner. Inside are my driver's license, a couple of bank cards, and about $60 in cash. There's a coffee stain on the back, and I notice a tiny red stitch along the top edge—easy to spot if you find it. It was a gift from my grandmother and has sentimental value; really hoping to get it back if anyone happens to come across it near Mission Plaza. If found, email me at [email protected] and we can arrange pickup.
I lost my set of house and car keys yesterday around 3pm near Mission Plaza by Bubblegum Alley in San Luis Obispo. The ring holds a silver Yale house key and a spare car key on a bright red silicone keychain with a tiny black USB drive tucked in. A noticeable scratch runs along the brass edge, and there's a small faded 'Mom' charm on the ring. They're worn and important to me—the house key opens my apartment, and the spare key is my only backup. If you've seen them, please drop me a message; I'd be forever grateful.
I lost my white ceramic mixing bowl yesterday around 3:15pm near the farmers market on Higuera Street in San Luis Obispo. It's about 10 inches across, with a hand-painted cobalt-blue daisy pattern circling the rim and a small chip on the outer lip. The bowl is sturdy, a bit worn from years of baking with family recipes, and there’s a pencil mark on the bottom that reads 'KB-7'. I really miss it because it’s part of our weekend baking routine and it has sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother. If anyone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
I found this afternoon around 3:45 pm outside the Starbucks on Monterey Street in downtown San Luis Obispo. It’s a small red nylon tote bag with a black star sticker on the front and a slight coffee stain along the bottom edge. Inside, there’s a spiral notebook with a green cover, a reusable water bottle, and a whale-shaped keychain. If the owner can describe the contents or the notebook’s cover design, I’d be happy to return it.
I found this oak coffee table this afternoon around 2:15pm in front of the Starbucks on Higuera Street, downtown San Luis Obispo. It’s a mid-century style piece, about 48 inches long, with a clear glass inset on top and a lower open shelf in matching oak. The finish is a warm honey tone with a few light scratches and a tiny dent on the front left leg. There’s a faded fern sticker tucked on the inside of the lower shelf, which is a small clue to its past. It feels sturdy and clean, and I figured someone might be missing it, so I’m hoping to help reunite it with its owner.
I found a black leather briefcase this afternoon around 2:15pm on the sidewalk outside Mission Plaza, near Higuera Street in San Luis Obispo. It's about 14 inches wide, with a sturdy handle and a small brass lock, and the exterior shows light creases from wear. Inside there's blue lining and an organizer panel; there's a faded brass nameplate on the lid that reads 'A. Chen,' plus a USB-C cable and a small notepad tucked in a pocket. If this belongs to you, please reach out so I can help get it back safely.
Found a pair of blue Speedo swim trunks this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the San Luis Obispo Public Library on Osos Street, near Mission Plaza. They're men's size Medium, mainly royal blue with a black side stripe and a bright yellow drawstring. The trunks are in decent condition, a bit sun-faded from the beach, with a small orange paint smudge on the inner waistband and a tiny white sea turtle embroidered on the left leg for a unique touch. If you're missing a swimsuit, I'd love to get them back to you. Drop a note here and I can arrange a pickup near the library.
I found a black leather briefcase this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the San Luis Obispo Public Library on Palm Street. It's a 15-inch Samsonite executive briefcase with a worn bottom corner and a small coffee stain on the front panel. The interior lining is tan, and there's a blue fabric laptop sleeve tucked inside along with a metal nameplate engraved 'J.R.' on the inside pocket. There are a few loose papers and a receipt for a cafe, and the overall condition is solid with just a couple of scuffs. If this is yours, I can drop it off at the library's Lost and Found desk or arrange a meetup to return it.
