My girlfriend's allergic to pretty much everything, so I had to give up that wrinkle releaser stuff. (This wouldn't work either).

I did find, though, that a spray bottle with just water in it works almost as well. Lay flat, give it a spray, stretch out the wrinkles and then give it a shake. Cheap as free.

Funny, the only pair of jeans I had available for me to wear to work today were wrinkled as all hell. I honestly thought to myself "I bet Lifehacker has posted something that could fix this." Lo and behold, you people read my mind. Good to know that Lifehacker is run by mindhackers.

I hang my clothes in the bathroom while I take a shower. In warmer months, I rarely need to iron. If there is excess wrinkles, I usually take just water in a spray bottle and spray myself while I am wearing the shirt. Then I stretch the fabric a little, and most wrinkles disappear.
What does the wrinkle remover do technically that water can't. I've never used it before, so I honestly don't know.

For travel, to/from/within the USA, you'd have to do more than halve it, assuming a single container. Half a cup is still four ounces, and the limit per container is 3, so you're just giving the TSA confiscators some free wrinkle releaser. Make a batch and put into one or more smaller containers, make a smaller batch, whatever....

Wet rag with wrinkled clothes in dryer always works for me...

I've been missing this stuff since it disappeared off the shelves (at least here in Canada, unless I'm blind).

Depending on how wrinkly things are, I find hanging it beside the shower will typically work wonders, especially when traveling. @Darcy: this should solve the GF problem, assuming of course one of you has a shower before you get dressed

@suburbancowboy:

This is exactly what I do. Then handy thing is your clothes are there to just put on when you get out of the shower, plus are wrinkle free, and no addition time or effort was needed to knock out the wrinkles.

A spray bottle with water does the exact same thing, no need for fragrance.

And just in time for spring break!

The shower thing has never really worked for me. Maybe I don't steam up the room enough? Here down under, I've never even heard of wrinkle release. I'm not sure I'd like to be wearing a chemical next to my skin all day.

The water-in-a-spray-bottle sounds good, but the thing is when I'm looking for a shirt to wear, I need it NOW and haven't got time to be wetting things and waiting until they dry.

If I'm wearing a wrinkled t-shirt and someone points it out, I'll just say that it's supposed to be like that; it's one of the new 'aged and wrinkled' look shirts that all the kids are wearing nowadays (and no, there is no such thing) ;)

I just mist my clothes with water. That's all it takes.

My mom and I saw this story, and said, woohoo! We both have a few wrinkles we'd like to get rid of . . . then we saw this was for clothes, not for faces (hee hee).

@renewbee: I use water on my clothes too and it works just as well. Even better I toss them in the dryer for a second after misting and presto, wrinkle free!

@renewbee: ROFL!!! That was brilliant. :) Thanks for the giggle.

Like most of you, I use the spray bottle with water whilst wearing the shirt...However, I'd like to caution everyone against ironing that stubborn collar without taking the shirt off, as my mom has done on two occasions. You're asking for trouble. :-)

This is how I keep wrinkles away:

Just after I finish drying my clothes, I lay all my shirts flat and stack them on each other. The weight of the stack presses out the wrinkles in the shirts.
