If any of you out there smoke and you are finding it hard to get rid of the stale smell from your lounge room try this burn a couple of candles in the vening and if you have a ciggie the candle flame gets rid of the smell i don't know why this works but it does because i tried it and was amazed when i rose the next morning and there was not a smell at all.PS never leave a burning candle unattended

another thing that will help get rid of the stale smell of cigarettes is......

never leave a dirty ashtry in the room, this seems to hold the smell.

Mind you I am an ex smoker now .....and that stops the smell all together...lol

Hi Pling i have tried really hard to stop smoking i even went to my doc she gave me the patches but i am still finding it hard i think i will try the posting "quitting smoking" to see if there are anymore tips on there to help me.

Thanks for the great tip Stewpot. Another way is to wet a towel with ammonia and twirl it over your head, helicopter style. This is the method that they used to use in bars many years ago. I think lighting candles sounds like much less work, and your friends and neighbors won't think you have totally lost it. LOL
