Oil Stains?

How can I get a oil stain ( from an oily/greasy lotion) off of a shirt?

Answers:
Commonly with oil stains, the "stain" is actually still oil. When the shirt is dry, try pouring some flour onto the stain and let it sit for a few hours. If there is still oil in the shirt, the flour will absorb it. Repeat if necessary.

Other answers:
use soda

diet coke, any diet soda will remove this

let the stain soak in the soda for 10 minutes, then wash. Guaranteed to work.
