I lost my small black notebook yesterday around 3pm near the downtown Sarasota Farmers Market on Main Street. It's a 3x5 inch faux-leather notebook, slightly worn, with a bright yellow sticky note on the first page that has a name and a phone number scribbled in blue ink. Inside are several personal contacts, and I even doodled a tiny red heart on page 2. It means a lot to me because it holds client notes and a few sentimental reminders from a friend. If anyone found it, please reach out; I really need it back because those numbers are my lifeline. There is a small blue bookmark ribbon sticking out from the top.
I lost my black leather briefcase yesterday around 3pm. It was left on Bayfront Drive near the Van Wezel Performing Arts Center in Sarasota after a quick meeting. The bag is black full-grain leather with brass hardware, about the size of a 15-inch laptop bag, and it has a small scuff on the lower front corner. A red leather luggage tag is attached to the top handle, and there’s a tiny scratch on the front. Inside there’s my slim laptop sleeve, a manila folder with client notes, and a blue Post-it with my initials MK in the pocket. It also contains a family photo I really need back.
I lost my black 1TB Samsung T5 external SSD yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in downtown Sarasota. It's a slim drive with a gray rubber bumper and a faint scratch along the top, and there's a red sticker with my initials 'PR' on the corner. Inside are important personal projects and travel photos, so it's really hard to replace and I’m turning the city upside down to find it. If you found it, email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a safe exchange or drop-off at the nearby lost-and-found by the Main Street Starbucks.
I lost my navy blue windbreaker this afternoon around 3pm near the Starbucks at Gulf Gate Village on S. Tamiami Trail in Sarasota. It's a lightweight Nike windbreaker in size L, with a white 'RP' monogram embroidered on the left chest and a bright orange fish patch stitched inside the left pocket. There’s a small snag near the cuff and a faint coffee stain on the hem from yesterday's ride home. It really means a lot to me—it's a gift from my sister, and I bike to work most days, so I really need it back. If anyone found it, please text me; I’d be so grateful.
I lost my sunburst violin yesterday around 3pm near the Ringling Museum on Bay Shore Drive in Sarasota. It's a full-size acoustic violin, spruce top and maple back with a warm sunburst finish, ebony fingerboard, and a tiny dent on the lower bout that's easy to spot if you know what to look for. The bow has a faded red wrap and there's a small rosined streak on the chin rest. This violin has huge sentimental value to me—it's a gift from my grandmother, and I really need to get it back before my gig this weekend. If you found it, please drop me a note here in the app and I'll come pick it up as soon as I can.
I found a black Dell Latitude laptop with charger this afternoon around 3:15 pm in the parking lot behind the University Town Center on University Parkway in Sarasota-Bradenton. It’s resting in a slim black case with a blue USB-C charging cable still plugged in, and there’s a small yellow sticker with the initials MV on the lid. The lid has a faint scratch along the top edge, and the Dell logo is clearly visible when you open it. The screen was off when I found it, but it boots and the keyboard looks clean with light wear. If this looks like yours, DM me here and we can arrange a safe pickup near UTC.
I found this navy blue satin evening gown this afternoon around 3:15 pm in the parking lot behind The Mall at UTC in Sarasota, in the Sarasota-Bradenton area. It's a floor-length size 8 gown by Adrianna Papell, with a detachable silver beaded belt. It's in great condition overall, just a tiny snag on the left hem that's easily fixable. The inside lining has a small heart-shaped pin with the initials 'K.L.' as a unique feature. If this sounds like yours, send me a note here and we can figure out a safe pickup near the UTC entrance.
I found a paperback copy of The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern this afternoon around 3:15pm, outside the Selby Public Library on Main Street in Sarasota. The cover is cream with a pale blue illustration, and the edges are a bit sun-worn with a faint coffee ring on the back. Inside, there’s a blue library sticker on the inner cover and a small yellow Post-it tucked between pages 95-100 with a dolphin doodle that makes it easy to spot. It's well-loved but in good condition, with a few creases on the spine and slight edge tanning. If the owner sees this, I'm happy to coordinate a pickup at the library desk.
I found a gold ring yesterday around 4pm near the St. Armands Circle fountain in the Sarasota-Bradenton area, right by the brick sidewalk outside the little cafe. It's a 14k yellow gold band, about 1.8 mm wide, with a tiny round ruby set in a bezel. Inside there's an engraving that reads 'M.B. 1999' and a faint floral pattern along the outer edge; it has a brushed finish and a small scratch from wear. I picked it up because it looked valuable and I really want to help reunite it with its owner—if this sounds like yours, send a message here and we can arrange a safe meetup to verify.
I found a navy knit scarf this morning around 9:15am in front of the CVS on Tamiami Trail in Sarasota. It's a medium-weight scarf, about 60 inches long, with a subtle silver thread woven through and a tiny silver anchor charm stitched near the end. There’s a small label that reads 'Everly' tucked into one corner. The scarf is in good condition, just a bit wrinkled from being on the ground. It looked like someone might be shivering and rushing by, so I grabbed it to make sure it didn’t get lost again. If you lost a scarf like this near downtown Sarasota, message me and we can arrange a quick meetup near the library on Main Street or CVS.
