I have found ppls important belongs before and tried to move mountains to get it back to them. PSA: do yourself a favor and put your phone number in your wallet/bag/backpack/whatever. Make sure your ID address is current.

I almost didn’t go to the dentist appt bc I was up all night crying/freaking out about how I was going to pay rent without that money and I looked a mess 😂 so glad I did and forever grateful to the honest young man who picked it up

The phone number on your bag is a good tip. I have a wristlet/wallet that i take everywhere and my keys are clipped to it on a carabiner. After my dog died last summer I clipped his dog tag with my phone number onto the carabiner as well—two birds with one stone, i can commemorate him and hopefully someone will call me if they find my wallet and keys.
