If you’ve recently attended a bonfire or visited a friend who smokes like a chimney your clothes may smell a little rancid. Here’s a tip to take the odour out:

Pour a can of regular coke—not diet or caffeine-free—into the washer with your laundry. Coke works wonders in removing smells. Visit Barefoot Lass’s Crazy Things to Do with Coca-Cola for some more ideas for the sugary soda, including:

• Boil Coke in a pan to remove burn marks

• Pour Diet Coke over your hair to make your hair dye fade

• Remove gum from hair by soaking the strands in Coke for a few minutes
