Lost handheld and console in Charleston

I was strolling down King Street toward Waterfront Park around 2:30 PM Sunday when a gust knocked my bag from my shoulder and I watched it vanish into the crowd. In that bag was my handheld game console and a spare controller, tucked into a black pouch with a charger wrapped around it. This thing helps me unwind after long shifts, so losing it stings more than I expected. If you found it anywhere near Waterfront Park or along King Street, I’d be grateful to hear it’s safe.

Found postcards near Charleston City Market

Early this morning, around 9:10 am, I spotted a neat stack of postcards tucked in a rack by the Market Street entrance of the Charleston City Market, not far from Waterfront Park. The cards feature classic Charleston scenes—Rainbow Row, The Battery, and a harbor view. It felt like a small window into someone’s memories, so I picked them up and kept them safe, hoping to reunite them with their owner. It’s a little bright moment to think these memories might travel a little farther thanks to this listing.

Lost sandals near King Street, Charleston

I realized my sandals were missing after a stroll around Marion Square near King Street in Charleston at about 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. They’re tan leather with a single buckle and a bit worn from long days of sightseeing, so they’re easy to spot by anyone who’s seen them. I’m feeling a mix of frustration and hope, remembering how comfy those sandals were on every step of our trip. If found, I’d really love to have them back so I can keep walking around this charming city without worrying about blisters.

Lost sheet music near Dock Street Theatre

I was heading to a rehearsal at Dock Street Theatre in Charleston this Monday around 4:30 pm when I realized my folder of sheet music had vanished. The pages are a mix of handwritten notes and printed arrangements, bound in a blue binder with a few creases. There’s a set of scales penciled in the margins and a tiny doodle of a guitar on the first page, which should help someone identify it. If found, I’d appreciate it being returned through the site so I can pick it up before rehearsal next week.

Lost: Pins in Charleston

While strolling along King Street after dinner around 5:45 p.m. yesterday, I realized my Pins were missing from my jacket. They’re a pair of tiny silver pins with a blue enamel lighthouse motif—part of a set I wear to community events here in Charleston. I think I last had them near the City Market area and Waterfront Park, and I’ve been retracing my steps ever since, hoping they weren’t swept away by the breeze. They aren’t expensive, but they’re meaningful to me, and I’d be grateful to anyone who found them.

Found ties near City Market, Charleston

This morning around 8:45 a.m., I found a small bundle of ties on a bench outside the City Market on Meeting Street, near Waterfront Park. There are three ties in varying patterns—a navy striped, a lighter blue striped, and a solid maroon—that look a bit creased but still wearable. I figure someone might be missing them after a work trip or interview, so I’ve kept them with me for now. If you recognize them, please check the listing on the site.
