If anyone has ever gotten gum on clothes, I tried something that worked pretty well to get it out.

I heated up a 1/4 of a cup of vinegar in the microwave. I poured that vinegar on the gum on my jeans and used a toothbrush, which I dipped in the vinegar, to scrub the gum off and the gum came off. It worked pretty well in case this ever happens to you and it probably has.

who's gum was it? What brand? What flavor?

If I sat in gum, how would I know what brand or flavor that it was? That doesn't matter anyway and that's not the point.

I like the icecube method, the whole thing just peels off...

ummmmmmmmmmm joke??

I tried using the ice cube method but that didn't work for me.

The vinegar method that I described took the chewing gum off completely without leaving any stain or sticky residue. There is no trace that the gum was even there. The vinegar didn't damage my jeans.

well, the icecube method only works if the gum us in a big chuck... if you start peeling at it at room temp then the ice cube wont work
