LOST

Black leather crossbody purse with pearl charm

I lost my black leather crossbody purse yesterday around 3pm near the Main Street Starbucks in Carbondale, downtown. It’s a compact purse, probably a Kate Spade style, about the size of a paperback, with a light tan interior and a pink pearl charm hanging from the zipper pull. The outside is smooth black leather with a tiny scuff on the bottom corner, and there’s a faded red tag with my initials 'LP' embossed on the front pocket. It has sentimental value—it's a gift from my grandmother and means the world to me. If someone picked it up or found it somewhere nearby, I’d really appreciate returning it.

Black rectangular glasses with blue-tipped temples

I lost my black rectangular glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Carbondale Public Library on Main Street. They’re a slim black metal frame with rectangular lenses, and the temple tips are bright blue. There’s a tiny scratch on the left lens and a small engraving 'LK' on the inner right temple. They were a gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me, so I’m really hoping someone picked them up by mistake. If you found them, please text or call me—I can’t read well without them and really need them back.

Navy parka with orange lining, lost near SIU

I’m hoping someone might have picked up my navy parka with the bright orange interior. It’s a size large, The North Face, with a detachable faux-fur hood and a small tear on the left elbow. I last had it yesterday around 3pm outside the SIU Student Center on Lincoln Avenue in Carbondale, after grabbing coffee at a shop across the street. It also has a red embroidered initials 'P.P.' on the inside hem, and there’s a faint coffee stain near the pocket. It’s really sentimental to me because it was a gift from my aunt, and I’m really hoping to get it back.

Gold-tone locket bracelet with engraved initial 'A'

Yesterday around 3pm I lost my gold-tone bracelet on West Main Street in Carbondale, near the Carbondale Public Library. It's a delicate two-inch bracelet with a small heart-shaped locket, a tiny initial 'A' engraved on the back, and a dangling pink enamel heart charm. The clasp feels a bit loose and there are a couple of micro-scratches on the locket. This bracelet was a gift from my mom, so it means a lot to me and I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Bright blue LEGO Duplo fire truck set

I lost my bright blue LEGO Duplo fire truck set yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Carbondale, Southern Illinois. It's the chunky plastic kind, with a yellow ladder and red walls, and I can spot a small white sticker of a flame on the door. The bricks are a bit scuffed and the box is crushed from being dragged around by my kid, but most pieces are there. This set was a gift from my son last Christmas and holds a lot of sentimental value for us; I really need it back so we can finish the little diorama we've been building. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'd be so grateful.

Korg microKORG synth with orange panel found

I found a black Korg microKORG synth with an orange front panel this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the SIU Student Center on University Avenue in Carbondale, Southern Illinois. It's in decent condition, a few fingerprints on the keys, and it's tucked into a weathered black gig bag with a red sticker of a cat on the side. There's a small handwritten tag on the bag that says 'For practice, please return', not sure if that's the owner's note, but it stood out. If you own it or know who it belongs to, please reach out; this is something the owner likely uses for gigs, and I'd want to help get it back.

Gold-tone bracelet with heart charm and initials

I found a gold-tone bracelet this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the SIU Student Center on Lincoln Drive in Carbondale, Southern Illinois. It's about 7 inches long with a slim chain and a small heart charm engraved with the initials 'A.J.' and a tiny enamel blue flower near the clasp. The bracelet is in good condition with a light scratch on the back, and the lobster clasp still works smoothly. It looks like a keepsake, and I’d be happy to return it to its owner if the initials match or someone recognizes the piece.

Black Bluetooth speaker with orange sticker

I found a small portable Bluetooth speaker this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the SIU Carbondale Student Center on University Avenue. It's a compact black speaker, about 3 inches tall, with a red fabric grille and a tiny dent on the top edge. There’s an orange sticker on the bottom that says '24A' in black marker, and one rubber foot is missing. I tested pairing with my phone and it connected fine, so I know it works. If this is yours, shoot me a quick message with an identifying detail and I’ll get it back to you.

Gray Nike sneakers found near Marion Kroger

I found a pair of gray Nike sneakers this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind the Kroger on W Main Street in Marion, Southern Illinois. They're size 9, with a white midsole and a black Nike swoosh, and they have a neon green lace lock that makes them easy to spot. The left toe has a small scuff, and the inner lining is bright orange, almost like a secret pop of color. I figured someone might be missing them after a quick drop-off at the checkout line—no owner appeared, so I grabbed them to hold onto until you see this. If these are yours, please get in touch; they sound unique enough to match, and I’d love to get them back to you.

Two glossy concert tickets with red borders

I found a pair of glossy concert tickets this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Main Street Café on West Main Street in downtown Carbondale, Southern Illinois. They’re for a local indie show next Friday, with seats labeled A12 and A13 and barcode still visible. One ticket has a bright red border and a light crease along the bottom edge; the other has a pale gold border and a tiny coffee stain. There’s also a small green VIP sticker on one corner. It feels like someone would be really glad to have them back—if you think they’re yours, I can arrange a safe pickup nearby.
