Description
Hello. I dropped my money while I was travelling in Galway. €495 in a sealable plastic bag. The last time I remembered looking at it when I arrived at the coach station on the 8th May(Sunday) at 9 p.m.
I believe I might have dropped it somewhere between the coach station and the restaurant The Charcoal Grill near Eyre Square. If it is not between these places, it would be most likely on the 405 Go Eireann Bus.
The time I lost would be around 9 p.m to 10.00 p.m. Thank you very much

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
- Garda 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 asking your local Garda station for advice first.
Keep communication on Lost.ie
- 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, PPS numbers, or copies of your ID.
