* To keep goggles and glasses from fogging, coat with Colgate toothpaste

* Stay-Free Maxi Pads- clean window, floors, just stick to the palm of your hands and work! Can also be used as a knee pad.

* Pampers as an absorbent! Remove stains from the carpet with club soda, and a pamper to absorb. Wine stains, pour on the Morton salt and watch it absorb into the salt.

* To remove wax - Take a paper towel and iron it over the wax stain, it will absorb into the towel.

* Remove labels off glassware etc. rub with peanut butter!

* Fleas in your carpet? 20 Mule Team Borax- sprinkle and let stand for 24 hours. Maybe this will work if you get them back again.

* To keep FRESH FLOWERS longer Add a little Clorox, or 2 Bayer aspirin, or just use 7-up instead of water.

The trainers stuff tampons in the boy's noses when they get bloody noses wrestling and they use the Preparation H to stop the bleeding too! Yuck!

If you want to get all the gunk off of your coins, get Taco Bell Hot Sauce and smear it on your coins. Wash off and it's as good as new. (I've done this with pennies - don't know about other coins)

A friend of mine in college put Kool Aid in her hair for halloween and it took FOREVER to wash out. She was blond and put in fruit punch. LOL

When my FIL had cancer surgery, he had this gigantic open wound across his belly that wouldn't heal. Mom would have to clean it out and pack it every day. Then the visiting nurse came and told them to put Preparation H on it - and it healed right up.
