Tortoiseshell Warby Parker glasses with blue case
I lost my tortoiseshell Warby Parker glasses yesterday around 3pm near Capitol Square on State Street in Madison. They’re light acetate frames with a slim gold bridge and a blue soft case that I usually keep in my tote. The left temple has a tiny scratch and there’s an engraving 'PP' on the inside of the right temple for quick ID. They were a gift from my aunt last year, so yeah, they’re sentimental and I really need them back. If you find them, please drop me a message—I’d be eternally grateful.
Blue ceramic saucepan with wooden handle, sentimental gift
I lost a blue ceramic saucepan with a light wooden handle yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on State Street in Madison. It’s a 2.5-quart pan, glaze glossy blue with a small chip on the inside rim and a tiny hairline crack near the base of the handle; the bottom has the initials 'A.J.' etched in. It’s been in my family for decades and was a gift from my grandmother, so it means a lot to me. If you found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back—it's not just cookware, it’s a memory.
Navy quilted duvet cover set with two shams, queen
I found a navy quilted duvet cover set with two matching shams, queen size, this afternoon around 2:45pm. It was folded on a bench outside the Capitol Square entrance on State Street, right by the fountain near the Wisconsin Veterans Museum. The fabric feels like soft cotton with a subtle grid of stitching, and there’s a hidden zipper closure. Inside, there’s a small tag with the initials 'M.L.' embroidered, which is a nice identifying feature. It’s in good condition overall, just a bit wrinkled from sitting in the sun. Bedding like this matters a lot to someone who sleeps with it every night—if this sounds like yours, tell me the size and the initials on the tag, and we can work out a pickup near the Capitol or at the Madison Lost & Found.
Blue Nike running shorts with white trim
I lost my royal blue Nike running shorts, size M, with white piping and a small reflective swoosh on the left leg. I was out for a run yesterday around 3pm and I must have dropped them near Capitol Square on State Street in Madison. The fabric is a bit faded from training, with a tiny snag on the back pocket and a faint sweat stain at the waistband. They mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my sister and I wear them most days for long runs - really hoping someone picked them up and can return them. If you found them, I’d be grateful to reunite them with me; I can meet near the Madison Public Library or around Capitol grounds.
Found Pearl snare drum near Capitol Square, Madison
I found a Pearl Export Series snare drum, 14x6.5 this afternoon around 2:15pm on State Street outside the Capitol Square entrance in Madison. It's in a red sparkle wrap with a few surface scratches and a small dent on the rim. Inside the shell is a faded blue sticker that says 'UW Band,' which makes it a bit easier to identify. I figured someone might be missing a drum during the lunchtime crowd, and I'd really like to return it to its owner soon if you see this and recognize it.
Blue Gooby dog harness with lime stitching
I lost my blue Gooby dog harness for my beagle Milo yesterday around 3pm outside the State Street Starbucks near Capitol Square in Madison. It's a small size with neon lime stitching and reflective straps, and it has a tiny paw-print ID tag engraved with Milo's name and my phone number. The harness is a little dirty from the walk, and there's a small dent on the D-ring—the tag is easy to spot if you shine a light. Milo and I really rely on it; it's sentimental and helps him stay calm on our adventures. If anyone found it, please reach out—I’d be so grateful to get it back.
Red knitted scarf with pinecone pin
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my red knitted scarf was gone. I had been walking through Capitol Square in Madison near the Farmer's Market on State Street when I last noticed it. It is a chunky, two tone scarf, mainly bright red with burgundy flecks, about 60 inches long, and it has a wooden pinecone pin stuck near the left end. There is a small coffee stain near the edge from a spill earlier that day. This is a winter seasonal item and it was a gift from my grandmother, so it carries sentimental value; I am really hoping someone who finds it will return it.
Found young man near Capitol Square, Madison
I found a young man this afternoon around 2:15pm wandering near Capitol Square in Madison. He's about 5'11", with short brown hair and light stubble, and he was wearing a red hoodie under a navy puffer jacket, gray joggers, and white sneakers. A bright yellow backpack with a small fox keychain hung from one strap. He seemed worried and kept checking his phone, saying he’d gotten separated from friends near State Street and wasn’t sure where to go. He also has a small compass tattoo on his left wrist, which helped me recognize him from a friend’s description. If this looks familiar, email me at [email protected] so we can help reunite him safely.
Blue US passport with gold crest, lost near Capitol Square
I lost my blue US passport yesterday around 3pm near Capitol Square on State Street in Madison. It's the standard navy-blue cover with a gold crest and a bit of wear on the corner from travel. Inside there's a small sticker from my hometown on the inner page that should help someone verify it's mine, plus a light coffee smudge along the lower edge. This passport means a lot to me because I was supposed to travel next week, and I'm really hoping to get it back soon.
Silver bracelet with heart charm lost near Capitol Square
I lost my silver bracelet yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on State Street by Capitol Square. It's a slim, 7-inch sterling-silver bracelet with a small heart charm and a tiny initial engraving on the inside that reads 'A.J.' The bracelet has a small scratch on the clasp and a faint blue enamel stripe along one link—easy to spot if you're holding it. It means a lot to me because it was a gift from my grandmother and I really need it back. If anyone picked it up, please let me know and I can meet you near the State Street entrance of the public library or arrange a quick exchange; I can offer a small reward.
iPhone 12 Pro Pacific Blue with lime PopSocket
I lost my iPhone 12 Pro in Pacific Blue, in a clear case with a lime-green PopSocket on the back. I last had it yesterday around 3pm near Capitol Square, outside the State Street Starbucks and the statue by the Capitol. It has a few scuffs along the stainless frame and a small dent on the bottom-left corner—the PopSocket is easy to spot. It's my work phone and it holds family photos and some client notes, so I really need it back. If you found it, reach me at [email protected].
Lost Madison concert tickets and backstage pass
I lost my Madison concert tickets yesterday around 3pm. It's for a Jazz Nights show at the Overture Center on State Street, and I had two 2x4 inch white glossy tickets with a purple watermark and perforated edges, plus a backstage VIP pass on a lime-green lanyard. I last had them outside the Overture Center doors after grabbing a quick coffee on State Street. The tickets were a gift for my sister's birthday, so I'm really hoping someone picked them up and can return them.
Black tuxedo jacket with satin lapels, found near Capitol Square
I found a black Calvin Klein tuxedo jacket this afternoon around 2:45pm outside the Capitol Square on State Street, Madison. It's a size 42R wool-blend with satin notch lapels and a gray Calvin Klein inner lining. The jacket is in decent condition with a light crease and a tiny moth-hole near the left cuff, and there’s a silver tie clip engraved with the initials 'J.S.' tucked in the chest pocket. If this belongs to you, send me a message and we can arrange a return.
Navy blue dog harness with neon trim and bell
I lost my navy blue dog harness yesterday around 3pm. We were walking near Capitol Square, along State Street by the Madison Public Library, when Milo bolted after a squirrel and I felt the harness slip off. The harness is nylon, small size, with neon green trim and a tiny brass bell that jingles as he trots. There's a small blue fabric tag inside that says Milo, and it's branded Ruffwear. Milo is a rescue, and he gets anxious on walks without it, so this is really important to me. If you found it, I'd be grateful to get it back.
