6 Surprising Uses For Aspirin

1. To remove perspiration stains from white T-shirts, dissolve two aspirins in half a cup of warm water and apply to the area of the fabric where the stain is. This should be left for a couple of hours before washing.
2. First aid for pimples: Crush an aspirin tablet and add a little water to make a paste. Cover the pimple with this paste and after a few minutes rinse it off. The pimple will be less red and reduced in size. Aspirin is an astringent.
3. Drop a soluble aspirin tablet into the water before arranging cut flowers in a vase. It helps to keep them fresh for longer.
4. To treat dandruff, crush two aspirin tablets and add them to your usual shampoo. Leave on the hair for a couple of minutes and rinse as normal.
5. Mosquito bites can be eased by wetting the skin and rubbing an aspirin over the spot.
6. Take some fresh lemon juice and mix it with a soluble aspirin to make a mixture that will remove grass stains, nicotine stains, etc from hands.
   

A flip side to free antibiotics

A new Publix program to give free antibiotics has a catch.
Publix, the Lakeland based supermarket chain is giving, with a prescription, seven of its generic antibiotics for free.
Last year, Wal-Mart announced a plan to offer generics for $4 bucks. Publix matched that deal. The catch this time is that Publix discontinued its $4 dollar match with this new free antibiotic campaign. Some customers who were used to paying $4 bucks will now go back to paying regular price.
One step forward, two way back for the supermarket giant.
