Beige Samsonite suitcase with blue tag

I lost my beige 24-inch Samsonite rolling suitcase yesterday around 3pm near the Merced Transit Center on G Street by 14th Street. It’s a hard-shell suitcase with some scuffs on the corners and a bright blue luggage tag with the initials 'PM' dangling from the handle, plus a red fabric strap I wrapped around the middle to keep the wheels from wobbling. Inside are everyday clothes, a small photo album, and my grandmother's keepsake locket—stuff with real sentimental value I can't replace. I really need it back; it holds irreplaceable memories and some important documents. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back; I can meet you somewhere in Merced to collect it.

Neon green Nike soccer cleats, size 9.5

I was out for practice yesterday around 3pm when I realized my neon green Nike soccer cleats were missing. They’re size 9.5, neon green with a black swoosh and a white sole, and the left shoe has a tiny tear near the toe with the laces a bit frayed. I left them on a bench outside the gate by the Merced High School football field, near 7th Street and G Street, after drills. They’re pretty important to me—my only reliable pair for practice—and they’ve got sentimental value because my coach gave me a pep talk there last season. If you found them, please reach out; I’d be really grateful to get them back.

Yellow DeWalt 20V drill missing near Walmart

I’m missing my DeWalt 20V cordless drill, yellow and black, with a worn rubber grip and a magnetic bit holder. I last had it yesterday around 3pm in the Walmart parking lot on G Street in Merced, while I was loading groceries; I must have set it down and walked away. The drill is a bit battered from use, with a small dent on the top cap and the XR battery showing some wear. It was a gift from my dad and I rely on it for weekend projects, so I’d be grateful to get it back if anyone found it.

Patagonia Black Hole backpack with orange zipper pull

I lost my Patagonia Black Hole backpack yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Merced. It's black, about 25L, with a bright orange zipper pull on the main pocket. The top flap has a small red embroidery patch with the initials 'A.J.' and there's a blue Nalgene bottle peeking out of the side pocket. Inside are my notebook, a green highlighter, and my student ID—things I definitely need for classes. It means a lot to me; it was a gift from my sister, and I really need it back. If you found it, please drop a note here—I'd be forever grateful.

Red Nike sneakers, size 9, blue lace lock

I lost my red Nike sneakers yesterday around 3pm near the Merced Mall on G Street, right outside the food court. They're Nike, crimson upper with a white sole, size 9, and a bit scuffed from daily wear. The left shoe has a bright blue lace lock I added last month, and there's a small dent near the toe on the outer edge. They were a gift from my mom, and I really need them back.

Leopard gecko found behind Merced Mall on G St

I found a leopard gecko this afternoon around 2:15 pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Mall on G Street. It’s about 4 inches long from head to tail, tan with brown spots and a pale yellow belly. It has a small white scar on the left side of its neck and a slightly kinked tail tip—nice little details to help ID it. It seemed healthy and curious, so I kept it on a towel in a ventilated container with a tiny dish of water. If this is your pet, I’d love to help get it back home—bring a photo or a quick detail to confirm ownership.

Found Wilson tennis racket with neon grip

I found a Wilson tennis racket lying near the bike racks outside the Merced Mall on G Street this afternoon around 2:30pm. It’s a mid-size racquet with a black frame and orange accents, and the grip is wrapped in a neon-yellow overgrip. There’s a small cat sticker on the throat and a tiny dent near the throat, but otherwise it’s in decent shape. If this belongs to someone, drop me a message on the app and we’ll work out a pickup—I'd really like to get it back to its owner.

Green paperback mystery novel with distinctive marks

I found a green paperback mystery novel this morning around 9am outside the Merced Library on 21st Street. The cover is bright green with a silhouette of a detective, and the spine shows a crease from being shelved and reread. The title reads Shadows on Main, and there are dog-eared pages around chapter 12. On the back cover there’s a pale blue sticker with the initials 'J.S.' and a small pencil note that says 'Merced Book Club'—two distinctive marks that might help identify it. It’s in decent shape overall, just a bit worn from daily use.

Navy tote bag with whale pin

I found a navy blue canvas tote with a tan leather bottom and brass zipper this afternoon around 3:45pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Mall on G Street, near the food court. It has a small light-blue enamel pin in the shape of a whale on the front pocket, and the inside lining is bright yellow and white stripes. Inside there’s a gray notebook with a doodle on the cover and a reusable water bottle. It seems sentimental and probably used daily; I’d love to get it back to its owner if you think this might be yours.

DeWalt 20V drill kit found

I found this DeWalt 20V cordless drill kit this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Merced Marketplace on G Street. It's in a sturdy yellow/black hard case, with two batteries and a charger tucked inside. The drill itself has a few scratches on the grip and a tiny dent on the bottom corner, plus a blue painter's tape label on the case with the initials 'MR' written in black. There's also a small sticker that reads '20V Max' on the case lid, but the important part is the batteries and charger are all there. If this is yours, it's waiting by the cart return area; I’d like to get it back to you.
