OT - Tide To Go Pen - PHEW! Does your's stink?
Some how at lunch I got a spot of salsa on my capri's. They are a very light khaki color, si it was really showing up.
I remembered I have a Tide To Go pen in my desk drawer.
Well............the spot is completely gone, I am impressed, however..................it STINKS to the high heaven! PHEWEEEE
I think I would rather have the spot on my leg than smell like this all afternoon! 
Any body else's Tide To Go pen stink? Is it just mine??

Ok, I am glad to know I am not the only one! I had one in my purse forever and used it a couple of times. The last few times I used it, I noticed it was funky smelling as well. I threw it away, lol.

I personally have not had this problem, because I use the little OXY CLEAN spray on spot remover..
But some time back, I remember a girl at work using a
TIDE pen and it smelling really bad. She called the
1-800 number for TIDE...I think it was on the pen itself, and they told her that it will do this after a certain amount of time. You may want to give TIDE a call. I think they sent her a new pen or a coupon for a new one.

I am on the road a lot with my job. I kept one in my car. It had been in three for awhile and I needed to use it one day. I opened it up and it smelled like FEET!!!!! I threw it out. I have a new one now and I have not had a problem yet.

I have also had this happen to me. I had opened the pen and used it one time and I put it in my purse just in case I needed it later. (I'm pretty clumsy when eating sometimes). About six months after that I was on vacation with my hubby and my grandmother and no where near our rental home, when I spilled some of my blueberry smoothie on my light pink shirt. I got my pen out and the smell was absolutely horrible. I threw it away without using it.
When I got to our rental home, my grandma took out a little of the oxiclean powder and mixed it with a little bit of water and made a paste out of it. She told me to rub the paste into the stain, and let it sit for an hour. After an hour, I washed it with one scoop of Oxiclean and my regular detergent. The stain (the entire stain!!!!) came out without a trace. I've not done a load of laundry without Oxiclean since. I keep a small purse sized bottle of the Oxiclean stain remover in my purse and in my car.
Thank God for grandmas sharing their wisdom, and thank God for Oxiclean too.
