It's 6.15pm. All the shops have shut and I have run out of fabric conditioner. I really need to do some laundry tonight to wear for tomorrow. I live in a hard water area so if I don't use anything, my clothes are going to be like cardboard! Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

You'd think Kirby would let you access them for free after paying so much for the vacuum... heavens no! We lost ours in a move and can't remember how to use certain features. Help someone!

All of a sudden in the middle of the night last night I had this weird feeling and then I just.. Threw up. I didn't know what to do and I was still half asleep so I moved all the blankets off the bed except the sheet. So upon waking I put my sheets in the washing maching, but I'm not sure what to do about my matress. It's a bit damp and smelly and gross and Im not sure what I should spray it with or clean it with.

Please help. Sorry for giving you gross details.

I recently purchased a new comforter set. The care tag says "dry clean only". I have not as yet tried Dryel and so do not know how well it works. My question is this: Should I follow the manufacturer's recommendation and take my bedding to the dry cleaner or do you think it will be safe using Dryel to clean it?

No matter how expensive the shirt is, my husbands polo-style golf shirts, after washing a few times, the collars start fading and get a "ring" where the collar folds over. Its very frustrating, I am washing exactly as the shirt says. I even read to turn the shirts inside out and unfold collar during washing, and this helps some, but still eventually they fade so bad, he will no longer where the shirt. Please help?

When I wash a load of dark clothes, it seems the fleece type clothing gets dark "greasy" looking spots on them after washing and drying? What is this and why does it only seem to do that type of clothing and color? How to prevent it from happening?

I recently asked about a home solution to take stains off of countertops. Someone suggested scrubbing with a baking soda and water paste. After trying everything else imaginable, I was amazed at how easy that did the job! Does anyone know any other little cleaning solutions...stuff you find around the house...that are as effective?

The machine is about 6 years old, an Indesit. There was a loud bang and as the spinning continued I could see the side of the machine bulging as the drum banged against it. Very scary! The drum is now lower than normal and to one side. Can it be fixed or should I just buy a new one? Thanks!

I buy expensive natural soaps, and hate to throw out the bits when it gets down to a small piece. But I tried to "melt" several of these in a ceramic bowl in the microwave, and got a frothy mess. Is there a simple, better way to do this or don't bother?

Hi,
I was wearing my husbands new sweatshirt today and he told me I better not get anything on it. After reasuring him I wouldn't I decided to fry some food... Dumb,dumb,dumb..... I know!
Anyway I of course got little grease splaters all over it. I doused it in "Spray N Wash" and threw it in the washer. My husband finally decided to help with the laundry and threw it in the dryer (I didn't tell him). The grease stains are still all over it. Can someone please tell me if there is anyway to get them out.

After cleaning my microwave oven, I find that the smell still remains in what was cooked or warmed previously.

What can I do to remove the smell AFTER I've cleaned the oven?

Is there something I can use to kill the oder of foods prepared earlier?

Thanx
