Red Le Creuset skillet found near Walmart
I found a red Le Creuset 9.5-inch enameled cast-iron skillet this afternoon around 3pm in the parking lot behind the Walmart on Pleasant Valley Boulevard in Altoona. It's in great condition aside from a small interior rim chip and a bit of sticker residue on the bottom where the care label used to be. The enamel is glossy and the skillet looks barely used. If this belongs to you, I’d love to help get it back and minimize the chance someone else misses it.
Navy Nike hoodie with coffee stain and star zipper
I lost my navy Nike hoodie yesterday around 3pm outside the Walmart on Plank Road in the Altoona-Johnstown area. It's a size L, zip-up hoodie in decent shape, with a small coffee stain on the front pocket and a worn-in feel. The drawstrings are white and have tiny silver star-shaped tips, and the hood lining is a striped blue-and-white pattern you can spot if you peek inside. It's a casual outfit I throw on all the time, and it has sentimental value because it was a gift from my sister before I moved here. I really hope someone found it and can help me get it back.
Black Anker PowerCore 10000mAh charger
I lost my black Anker PowerCore 10000mAh portable charger yesterday around 3pm outside the Amtrak station on 11th Avenue in downtown Altoona. It's a matte black unit with the white Anker logo on top, and there’s a small dent near the corner and a light blue USB-C cable looped around it. The cable is still attached, and there’s a tiny fray near the connector. It’s in decent condition otherwise, and I rely on it daily to keep my phone charged during my long commutes and work calls. If anyone happened to spot it near the Amtrak stop or the surrounding blocks, I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Blue Pearl snare drum with chrome hardware
I found a blue Pearl snare drum this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Blair County Convention Center on Convention Center Drive in Altoona. It's a 14x6.5 inch shell with a sparkly blue finish and chrome hardware. There’s a small dent on the rim and a white sticker that says 'Drummer Dad' on the shell. The drum head looks used but sturdy, and it smells faintly like a rehearsal space. If this belongs to you, I’d really like to help get it back to its owner.
Hand-painted ceramic vase with blue florals
I lost my hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 3pm outside the Altoona Public Library on Allegheny Street. It's about 8 inches tall, white glaze with cobalt blue floral pattern and a thin gold rim. There's a small hairline crack along the rim and a tiny maker's mark on the bottom that reads 'Sophie Pottery Studio' in cursive. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it has sentimental value, and I'm really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'll be forever grateful to reunite it with its home.
Small green budgie with yellow face and red leg band
I live in Altoona and I'm missing my little green budgie. Yesterday around 3pm, he slipped from his cage on the living room windowsill when the door opened, and I haven't seen him since. He's palm-sized, with a bright green body, a yellow face, blue-tinted wings, and a distinctive red leg band marked 428. He’s tame, loves to chirp, and responds to the name Mango. I last spotted him near the CVS on Plank Road in Altoona, and I’m really hoping he finds his way back home—this bird is a part of our family and my son is heartbroken. If you spot him, text me at 555-0140 or email [email protected].
Nintendo Switch OLED with neon Joy-Cons
I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED yesterday around 3pm. It was in the Altoona-Johnstown area, after I parked in the parking lot behind the Altoona Amtrak Station on 11th Avenue. The device is in a black protective case that has a dragon sticker on the front. The Switch itself has neon red and blue Joy-Cons, and there is a small dent on the bottom edge of the console. The case is black with a red zipper, and inside is a screen protector with a tiny bubble near the top-right corner. It means a lot to me—it's my only way to unwind after long shifts and it was a gift from my sister two years ago. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Gray hamster in blue cage found near Walmart
I found a tiny gray hamster this afternoon around 3:15pm outside the Walmart on Plank Road in Altoona. It was tucked inside a blue Habitrail-style cage with a little pink water bottle and a chew toy. The fur is clean but a bit muddy from the rain, about 4 inches long, with a white belly and a heart-shaped white patch on its chest, plus a tiny notch on the left ear. There’s no ID tag on the cage and I didn’t feel any microchip when I checked. I’d love to get this little guy back to his owner—pets like him mean a lot to families; if you think he’s yours, message me and we can arrange a meetup near the store entrance.
Red-lid contact lens case, lost near Amtrak in Altoona
I lost my contact lens yesterday around 4:15pm near the Amtrak station on 11th Avenue in downtown Altoona, in the Altoona-Johnstown area. It was inside a small black oval case with a bright red lid and a tiny white sticker with an 'L' on it for the left eye. The lens is clear and prescription -1.75, and I wear it every day; going without it is a real bother and I really need it back. The case has a faint scratch on the lid, and the lid closes snugly. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back.
Gray neck pillow with red embroidered tag
Found this gray travel neck pillow this afternoon around 3pm behind the Altoona Public Library on 9th Avenue in the Altoona-Johnstown area. It's a memory-foam neck pillow in dark gray fabric, about 11 inches long, with a black adjustable strap and a small red embroidered tag on the side reading 'RV.' There’s a faint coffee stain near the zippered pouch and some travel creases from use, but otherwise it’s in good shape. I figured someone must be missing it after a long flight or road trip—hoping the owner recognizes it. If this belongs to you, check the tag initials and share what you last stored in the pillow pouch.
Blue CVS Health contact lens case, initials KS
I lost my blue CVS Health contact lens case yesterday around 3pm. It's a small rectangular case, about 1 by 2 inches, with a clear body and a blue lid. There's a tiny crack along the lid and the bottom is etched with my initials 'KS'. I think I dropped it outside the CVS on 6th Avenue by Lakemont Park in Altoona; I retraced my steps but came up empty. I rely on this case daily, so I'd really appreciate getting it back; text me at 555-0123 or email [email protected] if you find it in the Altoona-Johnstown area.
Brown leather Coach wallet found with initials
Found a brown leather Coach wallet this afternoon around 2:45 pm near the CVS on 6th Avenue in Altoona, just off Market Street. It’s in decent shape, with a couple of light scuffs on the back and a blue interior lining that peeks out when you open it. Inside I found several cards and a faded photo, plus a small metal plate on the outside with the initials J.S. on it. I’m keeping it safe and posted here because these things can really matter to someone who loses them—wallets hold more than cash, you know. If this is yours, I’d be glad to hand it over to you.
Gold-tone marcasite earrings, lost near CVS Altoona
I lost my gold-tone earrings with a delicate marcasite inlay yesterday around 3pm near the CVS on 6th Avenue in Altoona. They’re small, about 1 cm across, with butterfly backs and a subtle sparkle from the inlay. They were a gift from my grandmother, so they mean a lot to me and I really want to get them back. One earring has a tiny flower engraving on the back, and the other has a faint star engraving near the post.
Black canvas tote with tan straps, red zipper pull
I lost my black canvas tote yesterday around 3pm outside the Logan Valley Mall entrance by Sears, in Altoona. It's medium-sized, with tan leather-like straps and a bright red zipper pull you can feel through the fabric. Inside there's a spiral notebook with my grandmother's doodles, a blue scarf, and a small USB drive with family photos. One inside pocket has a tiny hand-stitched sailboat patch—the bag is sentimental, and I'd be grateful to get it back.
Lost Mishler Theatre ticket, Row C
I lost my Mishler Theatre concert ticket yesterday around 5pm near the Mishler Theatre on 5th Avenue in Altoona. It's a single-use printout with a blue header and a big barcode; it's for the show this Friday night, in Row C, Seat 12, Orch Center, price about $45. The ticket has a small tear along the left edge and a coffee stain in the lower-right corner, plus a tiny crease from being folded in my wallet. It was a gift from my sister, so it really means a lot to get it back. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate it getting returned.
