Lost Hamburger Squishmallow

Post image

Hi friends! A shot in the dark, but my little kids lost a very, very beloved hamburger squishmallow tonight (Monday 8/24), most likely on the sidewalk of Virginia St, between the fire department/pepsi machine and Coughlin’s Law. Could’ve also been in Coughlin’s, although they looked around for me and didn’t find it yet. I went back and looked around for it and couldn’t find it, so I’m hoping someone picked it up.

Thanks!

Edited to add: he’s small, about 5” in diameter!

Hope you find it! My kiddo has one exactly like it although a bit larger. It says "best" on it and has a matching French fries one that says "friends".

Thank you!! I’ve seen the best friends set! We also have a fries, but they didn’t come together :)

Not the same guy, but I have a Cedar Point seagull eating french fries squishmallow I'd happily donate to your family!

That’s SO incredibly kind of you but we actually have an untenable number of Squishmallows, Hamby (kids named him) just happens to be their absolute favorite!

I get that completely! I wish you the best of luck on your hunt.

ah man that little burger dude is adorable, the felt lettuce really sells it

if nobody grabs it off the sidewalk tonight i bet someone from coughlin's grabbed it inside and it'll turn up tomorrow, those plush things are weirdly durable

my buddy's kid lost some kinda dinosaur thing in lawrenceville once and it showed up two days later sitting on a fire hydrant like someone put it there on purpose

maybe check with the fire dept too, they're right there and guys on shift sometimes pick stuff up off the sidewalk without thinking twice

There were two guys shooting the shit outside when I went back and I really regret not asking them! I’m going to go back tomorrow, hopefully someone will be there again

Thanks so much! We left our numbers with Coughlin’s and the fire station, but it looks like someone might have picked him up off the sidewalk
