Lost holiday decorations near Covelli Centre
Description
I’m Laura Jenkins. I last had my holiday decorations on the small table by my front door after I got home from work at 7:40 p.m. last Friday. The set includes two string lights, one red plaid ribbon, and a small gold star topper, all tucked in a green tote. They’re for our annual porch display and they carry memories of my grandmother. I checked the porch, then walked along Wick Avenue toward the Covelli Centre, hoping to spot them along the way, but they were gone. I feel a mix of disappointment and worry, like I let the season slip away. If someone found them, I’d be grateful for their return.

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.
