Apparently I’m not the only one who thinks so either. Earlier this week, I ran into another shopper at Jewel who was also buying Febreze Car Clips. She said “You know what I do with these? Clip them to the heat vents in my house.”
I was a little surprised to hear this — I mentioned Febreze has other home air freshener products, like the Set & Refresh. “No, no,” the shopper continued, “the car ones work so much better. Whenever the heat runs in the house, the scent is released.”
Here’s an email I got from reader Shelley:
“You will laugh, but I stocked up on Febreze car fresheners this week. We use them when we travel for our hotel bathroom because they are small & easy to pack. When you have four people in a hotel room and many of them don’t have bathroom fans, well..? We clip one to the shower curtain. It helps freshen the bathroom so much!”
These exchanges got me wondering — what other ideas do you have for unusual uses for common products?

I’m putting one on my heat vent right now!

of Febreeze fabric spray which seems to leak from throwing it around. Hotel rooms many times have unusual smells but put two teens with hockey gear in it and you have kicked that up a few notches. Will pick these up for hockey tournament traveling.

I always put fabric sheets between the layers of clothes in our suitcases when we travel and then use and toss them out when i have to do laundry on the road, Great for road trips and a small reminder of what home smells like when your away. Also the pods are wonderful and take up very little space when doing road trips!

I use fabric sheets on my mattress between the fitted sheet, 1 bed bugs hate them, 2 it keeps your sheets smelling fresher longer.

It helped a lot when you mentioned how you can use air fresheners to get rid of the hotel bathroom’s scent. A friend of mine was talking about how he wanted to use some car air fresheners in his house.
