Help!! My ring is stuck, what do I do??

I know that you've always liked your rings to be tight, but now your fingers on the verge of turning blue and you don't know what to do to get your rings off. Of course you've already tried soap, but you found that it was slippery and not effective enough to remove your ring. Then you tried oil, which was too slippery to get a good grip on your ring, so this too failed.
So what's the solution?

Try spraying your hand with Windex! Windex has an oil base to it, and if you've put a towel down under your hand so that the windex isn't all over everything, you can easily grab your ring, and often it will slide right off! Amazing!

What do you do if the Windex trick doesn't work? The next option would be to raise your hand over your head for a few minutes, and if you can stand it,either hold a piece of ice in your hand, or put your hand in a bowl of ice water as well. This will decrease the blood flow, and as our hands get cold, they tend to shrink. This 3-prong approach of raised hand, ice and windex should do the trick!

One last note, windex, having an oil base, will leave a residue of oil on your jewelry so be sure to clean it after you done this or you will very quickly have very dirty rings!

Toula Portokalos: I woke up with this huge zit this morning.
Ian Miller: Where?
Toula Portokalos: [points to spot on face] There.
Ian Miller: I had a huge zit this morning!
Toula Portokalos: Really? Where?
Ian Miller: [points to his face] Well, it was there, but it's gone now.
Toula Portokalos: Why?
Ian Miller: I put some Windex on it.
