Lost and Found. Have you?

Sorry for your experience there. I lost my cellphone once before and it made me so down. It's not so much of the fact that I lost the cellphone but more towards the fact that I lost so many important contacts inside that are pretty valuable to me.

lucky you Iriene88.. I have not got my lost and found.. but I had an experience of finding something that I thought I have lost it. I misplace one of my phone battery in my bag, and after a few days of searching, turning over the bag and so forth, I gave up to look for it.. but amazingly, few days later, when I already thought it was missing, I just put my hand in the bag, and I FOUND IT! and my first action, I send an SMS to a friend telling her there is a ghost in my bag!

our daughter once lost her cell phone on her way home from school. she and some friends retraced their steps several times but alas, it was lost! we were fortunate that some kind, older (and honest) people called her and returned it to her. who knows what sort of bill they could have run up!

Hi Iriene, it is rare round here to lose something and not have it still there later. I remember a few years back I'd driven into town (yes, over the mountain an hour away). Whilst there I stopped for a coffee in my favourite place and left my jacket behind, but didn't realise till I was three quarters of the way home. I'd already passed a friend from my village driving into town as I was driving back, had to be going through town as the road goes there, so I telephoned him and asked him to go into my coffee haunt and bring my jacket back. Of course it was still there when he got there and it saved me the drive back.

I have a very nice experience. I actually lost my wallet. Ah not really lost but I left my wallet in the taxi. I was in a hurry that time because I am suppose to be in school at seven thirty in the morning. I put my wallet in my lap and I have my money ready to pay the taxi driver. I did not realized that when I stand up, my wallet dropped in the taxi and I left there. I only realized that I lost my wallet when in the classroom, I wanted to show my friend some paper money from other countries. I panicked that time because all of my credit cards and special receipts for warranty is inside that wallet. I also have thousands inside. I went home and told myself that I can find that taxi again. I did not even see the plate number because in the first place, I did not know that I lost my wallet. I decided to go to the city late in the afternoon. I waited for a taxi to bring me to the city. A taxi stops and take me to where I will go. To my surprise, that is the same taxi I took and the man did not really recognize me. I asked him if he found any wallet. He just asked me what is my full name. I immediately say my name and he immediately give back my wallet. Then he started telling me what really happened. First, he did not noticed that I left the wallet. Then when a women took his taxi, the women found the wallet and gave to him. He, the driver, immediately keep the wallet. He send the lady to her destination after that, he opened the wallet and look for any contact number. He found my school identification. But I do not have any number in that wallet. He told me, if he cannot find me, then he will give all the money inside to the church. I can say that he is a nice person. He even talked about his family. I offered him some money but he declined and told me that I am just a student and I need more than him. He is working and I am just merely asking money from my parents. I really thanked him for his kindness and honesty. I cannot find any other person like him this time. He is one of a kind. Not only losing a wallet I will be sharing to you. I also found wallet. Actually three wallets in three different situations. The first wallet was when I was in Singapore for a study purpose. I was in the supermaket paying my stuff and I found a wallet near those candies and chewing gums tray. I handed the wallet to the cashier. The wallet is really full of much credit cards and thousands of cash. The wallet is obviously fat with thousands of dollars. I did not think twice but to give to the cashier and I have waited until the cashier handed the wallet to the manager of the shop. After that I left and I do not know what happened next. The second time I found a wallet is in the street together with my friend. The same place, in Singapore. The wallet is in the street and people are just passing by and they do not care about the wallet. You can also see obvious the money inside the wallet. But no people take the chance to take the wallet and give to the authorities. My friend picked the wallet and stayed on the street waited for any person looking for the wallet. But no one seems to appear. We opened the wallet and we have not found any identification or phone numbers or address. We still waited there and we even approach a women to help us where we can actually surrender the wallet. She told us that we can give the wallet to the train station office, since we are near the station. We tried to give to the Lost and Found section in the train station but the person in charge that time does not even want to accept the wallet because it does not have any identification. We cannot do anything. Until my friend decided to take the wallet home. I do not know what he did to the money. But according the the sister, he used the money for good things. The last time I found a wallet was in the train station, I was with my British friend and we are heading to a beach resort called Sentosa. While in the train, we noticed a small plastic and when I take out the plastic to throw to the bin, a wallet appears. Same as the other wallet, it has thousands of money. One singaporean approach us and told us that he can take the wallet with her to the train station office. We just trusted her and let her do what is necessary. Those were just my experiences. Thank you for posting this .Have a nice day. Keep posting. Happy mylotting. Best regards, Jeff

Wow, iriene, you are one lucky lady there! Thank goodness for that kind lady who found your handbag. I've never lost anything in that way, touch wood touch wood. I seldom carry anything with me when I go out. My ID card and money are mostly with my husband. :)

I have found and return what I found. Twice, I picked up two handphones and both times, they were returned to their owner. I dropped (I think it was dropped) my wallet once (cash, card and keys). I even made a police report but it is gone forever.

Yesterday,my girlfriend lost more than 100 yuan.He is on a big bag, and take things out accidentally dropped. I think this is only their attention to other things. There is no other way.There are are things that do not put in my wallet and not in the best, Such as"ID card, no bank cards, there are othe things that do not often use.

Last month i would lost my cell phone. I was driving on bike .Suddenly my newly cellphone got down by my pocket ..I went away , After some time when i felt that i have no my cell phone in my poket then i turn banck at my home ..Made a call on my cell,

I lost my handbag in a park, and my purse in a market, but when going back, and was able to get from adm. my belongings, except that the cash was gone. I was sad at first glance, but turned to be lighter, at least the cards, and keys were still there. Since then, I have got more cautious, esp. during travels. What if the ID were gone?

You are lucky . You found your whole bag! Really have to be careful next time. Last week I stopped at my maintanance office to pay for some bills. Then I took the lift and went back home. The minute I step on my house, my cell phone rang. The clerk from the office call me saying that I left a bank account book just now. I faster rushed down to the office to collect the pass book. This is my lost and found experience, the latest one. Haha, actually I lost many things before, just could not remember what I have found back.

I haven't really lost many things throughout my life. In high school I lost a few jackets, but nothing special. I have never lost anything like my wallet or my phone - I always check my pockets anywhere I go, so I am vigilant about that. Although that doesn't mean it will never happen, I just like to be cautious with things like my wallet with my cards and money in it, as well as my phone with personal contact information.

Yes i have a little incident.Few days ago i go to the "Expo center" on that day many people were come there because that day "Expo center" relies many schemes to buy clothes and other things i go to "Expo center"for buy some on the book stall i read some books and i keep my mobile on the table then i forgot it and leave the store after few minutes i realize that i don't have my mobile i check every store but i can't find it.on the announcement counter there an announcement for a mobile i go there and i see this is my mobile i am very happy to back my mobile.Thank god!

Yeah i have. Or I don't know do I have really, but here it goes: Ok, i was snowboarding at ruka, and came down the hill. Down at the hill i tried to find my phone from pocket, and it wasn't there. I felt really bad about losing it and if I couldn't find it from so big place as Ruka was. Well, then after searching, i hitted my arm to something hard.. Then I realized that there was a hole in my pocket and the phone has went straight through that hole in there. It was hard to get that phone out of there, inside the jacket.. Many times i have lost phone at smaller ski resorts, but have found it. Or then staff in there just announced about found phone.

How lucky! Better be more careful next time. I have been very careful throught out. Till today I have not lost anything due to carelessness but still I take extra care.
