“Are you done with my copy of Twilight? I’d like to have it back when you’re done. " ”Hey, I’m looking for my hat, do you still have it?” ”Would you mind giving the video game back to me?”
Facebook allows you a great way to send a message. Send a private message with just enough information to let your friend know you’d like the item back. Shoot your friend a quick email. Nothing extravagant is needed. Just ask for your item back. Text your friend. Ask for the item and include their favorite emoticon to make it less harsh.
Post on their Facebook wall. Be playful, and you’ll likely get some other friends joining in. If you have art skills, make a digital missing-poster of your item.
”You’ve had it forever. Is there any tread left on the tire?” ”I’m pretty sure the shirt you borrowed won’t be in fashion by the time you give it back. ” ”How many times have you beaten the game I lent you by now?” “It’s been so long since you borrowed it I forgot if it’s a DVD or a VHS. "
A movie: “Remember that Halloween dance scene in Karate Kid?” A tool: “My yard is a mess. I’ll have to weed eat for days. ” A clothing item: “What I really need is a black scarf to complement this outfit. ”
