Blue Omron BP monitor with cuff
Description
I lost my blue Omron blood pressure monitor with its cuff yesterday around 3pm near the UF Bookstore on University Ave in Gainesville, North Central Florida. It’s a compact white device with a blue cuff, and the travel case has a red heart-shaped zipper pull. The case shows a bit of wear and there’s a tiny scratch on the screen. It’s important to me because it helps me manage my blood pressure daily and it was a gift from my aunt, so it has sentimental value. If anyone found it around the Bookstore lot or by the bus stop on 13th Street, I’d be really grateful to have it back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
