Lost and Found

  • Article

Having recently received a price of over $300 to replace a lost car key, and past experience losing cell phones, cameras, other items that fall out of my pockets and cost a bunch to replace, I signed up today for a Lost and Found Label system. Looks like there a few companies in this business, but not a lot of web chatter on who’s best or who has the best return rate. So, picking the company with the best logo – I sent $5 bucks off to U-Found.Org for a set of key tags, pet tags(1), and 20 other labels – enough to plaster all of my valuable stuff. I like that I don’t have to share any personal info on my label – the finder just contacts the company, and either we set up a personal hand-off, or the company arranges shipping (if I lose my phone in Hawaii for example). I hope I never have to find out how well this works, but if I wasn’t a loser – I wouldn’t have bothered – so I probably will.

By the way – if anyone finds a set of keys to a Toyota Sienna in Lake Forrest Park, leave me a note… ;-)
