(1) My kids are messy, just like me, and we get lots of grease stains around here. After trying a gazillion products (Shout, Shout Advanced, Spray-n-Wash, OxyClean, Biz, etc.) I have found that Dawn dish soap works like magic. Rub just a bit in and scrub! I can even get grease stains out of clothing that I missed the first time around.
(2) I was getting orange stains around the neckline of my (favorite!) white shirts. After doing a Google search I found that the stains are caused by my daily moisturizing sunscreen reacting with the iron in our water. I have found the product Iron Out works best.

Someone just told me the trick about Dawn last week-why didn't I hear that before? You're right, it really does work! Wish I would have known that before I spent a bunch of $ on products that didn't work and gave up on a few of the boy's favorite shirts.
I LOVE Dawn! That's the only stain remover I use. And, yes, if you miss a stain the first time around you can still get it the second time around. Works like a charm.
Growing up, we always used Jungle Jake (it's at Mill's Fleet Farm) full strength or diluted 50%.
I have best luck with Shout on stuff *if* I apply the Shout and then wrap it up somehow so it won't dry and then let it sit overnight.
But hey, Dawn's cheaper!
