how to remove chewing gum from soles of shoes?

Answer 1

take a ice cube and hold it against it, then peel it off.

Answer 8

Try using Avon's Skin-So-Soft Bath Oil. It is inexpensive & will easily remove almost anything sticky. I use it all around the house, as an insect repellant & it keeps my skin from being so dry. If you don't have an Avon Representative, go to Avon.com to find one.
