Multi Purpose Locater is a transmitter and receiver system designed to allow a user to more easily find small objects such as keys, beepers, cell phones or glasses. The preferred embodiment of Multi Purpose Locater is comprised of at least some of the following: a transmitter, microchip and power source located inside a small plastic housing with an adhesive backing in combination with a receiver, power source and sound mechanism located inside another plastic housing and a speaker and power button on that plastic housing. To use Multi Purpose Locater, an individual attaches the transmitter housing to an object using the adhesive backing. The transmitter within the transmitter housing constantly emits a signal detectable by the accompanying receiver located in the receiver housing. When the object is misplaced, the user turns on the receiver using the power button located on the receiver housing. When the receiver detects the proper frequency from the transmitter, the sound mechanism sounds an alarm through the speaker located on the receiver housing.
