Trousers in the freezer - how long?!

Got some chewing gum stuck on my trousers and wanted to know how long I need to leave them in the freezer for before it will easily pick off?
2p off is still 2p off!

You don't need to put your trousers into the freezer at all;
You simply put some icecubes into a plastic bag, then place them on the spot where the gum has stuck until the gum goes hard. Then simple pick it off (you can fold back the fabric to make the gum crack to make it easier too).
Good luck

How are your trousers? Did you get all the gum off?
Hope you didn't try them on until after you'd warmed them up again :eek: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
