I once tried mouthwash on a wine stain—figured alcohol dissolves alcohol, right? Nope... ended up with a minty-fresh blotch that smelled oddly clinical. Lesson learned: dental products belong in mouths, not laundry baskets.
"ended up with a minty-fresh blotch that smelled oddly clinical."
Haha, been there... I once panicked and tried hand sanitizer on a coffee stain (same logic—alcohol, right?). Just ended up with a weird sticky patch and anxiety about ruining my favorite shirt. Turns out dish soap and cold water are way safer bets. Glad I'm not the only one improvising laundry hacks!
Haha, the minty-fresh blotch struggle is real... reminds me of when I spilled red wine on my white jeans (rookie mistake, I know). In a panic, grabbed whitening toothpaste thinking it'd lift the stain—nope, just ended up smelling like I'd brushed my pants. 😂 Glad you found dish soap and cold water works better; sometimes simple really is best. Laundry mishaps unite us all, honestly.
