HM/ OS febreze alternative?

hiya

as many know im selling the flat and all ready for the first viewers

I do have a bit of a tendency to burn something daily ( toast, cakes whatever) and the flat does tend to stink a bit of failed cooking.

Is there a HM/ os febreze alternative for room spraying & soft furnishing?
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

  • I would like to know too - I have just splashed out and bought my first ever Febreze and I am v pleased with the results ("doggy" chair now smells lovely) but need an alternative for when it's used up. I had already tried bicarb on the chair, and left it overnight , but the chair still smelt of dog.
    By the way, the dog has been banned from the chair!

    oh dear - I would like to know too as Febreze is good but expensive. I can just imagine pages and pages of "me toos"

    I hope somebody knows :D

    We have a spray bottle with a bicarb and water mix, don't know the quantities it's just *some* bicarb and topped up with water, it gets rid of smells on clothes and works as a room freshener.

    Also sneeky Oh keeps one in the car so he thinks I don't know about his "car food"! :rolleyes:

    Striking a match clears smells from the room too. Particularly good in the "wee-est" room in the house
    Saving in my terramundi pot £2, £1 and 50p just for me! :j
