Do you ever find your white t-shirt has yellow stains under the arms? I have used successfully cream facial bleach as a paste on white shirts to remove yellow under arm stains.

I use baby wipes, specifically luvs, inexpensive and they remove EVERYTHING, Dab, or Blot, don't wipe and then was as normal in your laundry according to clothing instructions :)...

Old Flight Attendant trick: Dribble on club soda and rub the stain lightly with a soft cloth (a first-class napkin, if you're on a plane).

Rub a glycerine supposatory (contains alcohal) on ball point pens stains and then launder in the hottest water the fabric will allow. Other items with alcohal work on ball point pen, but the suppository adheres longer and seems to work better.

Not sure how much of a secret it is, but I use hair spray to get out pen stains. It helps dilute the ink and seems to do a pretty nice job.
