Red river island purse lost somewhere in between Dame street and O'Connell street or possibly in a taxi
Description
Hi everyone - I lost my purse on Friday night somewhere in between Spar on Dame street and the Londis just at O'Connell bridge. There wasn't much in it not even my bank card or anything and receipts - no money but the most important thing I am after is my drivers license. It only got issued a few weeks ago so was pretty much brand new and I am due to sit my test next month so really need it :(
Feeling quite lost without my purse so if anyone was in Dublin City Centre on Friday or over the weekend please get in contact with me, the license is the most important thing in it and has my name and address on it and I would be forever grateful if someone could return it to me or even if anyone has heard or knows anyone with some info about it!
All I need is my license and cards back and I don't even care about the purse!
Thanks a million guys.

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.
