I use baking soda in the wash and also sometimes use white vinegar which helps to take out the odor. Haven't tried Febreze since I haven't had any that smelled lately.
My sister and BIL used to smoke as well as my brother and his wife. Everything they would share with you reaked with smoke.
I am not critizing those who smoke, because if I could have afforded it when I was young I probably would be doing it today. No not really as I still can't afford it. LOL I remember going fishing with my brother when we were kids, he was slipping and smoking and I asked him for a puff off the cigarette he had. He said, "No, if I do, you will tell Mama and Daddy" Of course, I said, "No I won't! Well to be honest, I lied to him as I begin to feel quilty and told on both of us. Rest assured he didn't trust me anymore to keep a secret. LOL Can't really blame him could I?
