febreeze?

[historyteach]

I seem to recall that febreeze was used by crack addicts to remove the smell? Is that right? Or was it used for something else?

Can someone please fill me in?

Thanks.

Shalom!

I don't know. I'm a recovering crack addict, and we would use any kind of air freshener to try to remove/cover the smell. I know people who use it to cover the smell of marijuana, too. Of course, we were still left with a smoke-filled room! If there's another use for it, I don't know.

Hugs and prayers!

I've never heard of that before, History, but I agree that smokers will probably use anything to rid the air of the smell!!

I just used up my last little bit in the bottle freshning up the house yesterday and will probably buy no more. The fumes of Febreeze are toxic to birds as are Teflon coated cookware, some perfumes and most candles!

I remember a long time ago someone posted that they sprayed their S/O with frebeeze and told them to get their stinky self off of their furniture!!

Febreeze made A LOT of $ from me trying to disguise the weed smell coming from the doors and windows of my home. Thank goodness those days are over. Now I corrolate that mountain fresh scent to a time in my life I'd rather not remember. Funny how that works, huh? Kinda like how certain perfumes and songs can take you back to certain times in your life....

Used to take the empty roll of toilet paper or paper towel and rubber band a fabric freshener sheet and blow our pot smoke through that so it wouldnt smell so bad but never heard of febreeze sorry.

THAT'S what I was thinking of!!!
Sorry, I had you all on a wild goose chase, cuz, I was thinking of the wrong thing. But, kj got what I was thinking of.
KJ, you're a GENIUS!!!

Thanks for your help, everyone!
Needless to say, I found these fabric sheets around the house, where they shouldn't have been. I thought they were called febreeze. I don't use them. My son's g/f does, and she was doing the laundry over here -- again!
Looks like that's not all they were doing!

Shalom!

you know what gets me as far as smells go? It's "scrubbing bubbles" -totally takes me back to my meth days- smells exactly like it. And it's too bad, because it's a good product, i just can't buy it.
