I lost my keys yesterday around 3pm outside the coffee shop on Main Street in Ottumwa. It's a medium-sized metal ring with a red silicone fob and a brass house key engraved 'R.J.' There's also a Toyota car key and a tiny dog-tag that says 'Cora.' The red fob has a small chip and a bite taken out of its edge—the keys look worn but work. They matter a lot to me because they include my apartment key and a sentimental mailbox key from my grandmother; I’d be devastated to lose them. If anyone found them near the Hy-Vee lot behind the Ottumwa Public Library, please reach out.
I lost my hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 3pm. It's about 9 inches tall, with a mint-green glaze, tiny gold specks, and the bottom is signed 'L. Chen 2023.' There's a small chip on the rim I noticed after a quick check this morning. I last had it in the parking lot behind the Main Street Market in Mount Pleasant, Southeast IA, near the old bank building, and it could have rolled into a nearby antique shop window. It means a lot to me because my grandmother gave me a similar piece, and I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my favorite navy blue hoodie while studying at the public library in Southeast IA last Saturday. It's a size medium, super soft, and has a small logo on the front. I last remember having it when I stepped outside to take a call. I'd really love to get it back because it was a gift from my friend and means a lot to me.
I lost my Korg MiniSynth keyboard while I was at a local park in Southeast IA. I remember having it with me while I was sitting on a bench near the pond. I packed everything up but must have left the keyboard behind when I went for a walk. It’s very important to me as I’ve been using it for my music practice. The keyboard is in a blue padded carrying case, and I would love to get it back if anyone has seen it!
I lost my black tuxedo, along with a matching bow tie, last Saturday at the Southeast Iowa Community Center during a wedding. I believe I left it in the changing area or possibly within the event hall. It is a size 40R and has a custom label stitched inside. I'm really hoping to get it back as it holds sentimental value.
I found a black leather briefcase this afternoon around 3:45 pm outside a coffee shop on Main Street in downtown Burlington, Southeast IA. It's a Coach-branded bag, about 15 inches wide and 11 inches tall, with a few scuffs along the corners and a sturdy, slightly worn handle. The interior lining is a deep red, and there’s a small brass buffalo charm dangling from the zipper pull plus a leather luggage tag stamped with the initials LH. It looks like someone would want it back—hope this helps the owner reunite with it soon.
Found a glucometer kit with a blue carrying case this morning around 10:15am in the parking lot behind the Hy-Vee on Jefferson Street in Burlington, Southeast Iowa. Inside is a OneTouch Verio glucometer, several test strips, and a spare lancing device; the case is a bit scuffed and has a small red heart sticker with the initials 'JL' on the front. The kit looks unused beyond the packaging, and it feels important because it’s a health item. If you recognize it, message me here and we can arrange a quick meet-up to return it near the Burlington Public Library or the Hy-Vee entrance.
I found a blue Korg Volca Keys synthesizer this afternoon around 2:15 pm outside the Old Capitol on Washington Street in downtown Iowa City. It's a compact 37-key pocket synth, electric blue with a few light scratches along the right edge. There’s a white In-Use sticker on the bottom and a small dent on the top-left corner, with a USB cable tucked underneath. It looks well cared for, and I know how rough gear loss can feel, so I’d love to get it back to its owner. If this is yours, DM me here and we’ll arrange a meetup in SE IA.
I found a limited edition action figure from the 1990s in a parking lot near downtown in Southeast IA. It appears to be in great condition, still in its original box. If you can describe the figure, I’ll be happy to return it to you!
I found a pair of clear, prescription reading glasses lying on a bench at the park near Southeast IA. They have a silver frame and a small scratch on the left lens. I came across them while taking a walk on Thursday afternoon and would love to return them to their owner.
