If I do finally break down and get a cold, I drink a ton of hot liquid (soup or decaffeinated tea, not coffee or hot chocolate), don't engage in too much physical activity, and most importantly of all get lots of SLEEP! Sleep is the definitive cure for any minor illness - I normally sleep 4-6 hours but when I'm sick, if I can get a good 10 hours for a few days in a row, it's gone after that. In fact, probably the reason people say you should drink a lot of hot liquid is that it helps you sleep better.
thats what i do when i wanna get rid of the cold.. but, for me, honey-lemon tea seems to work like a charm.. since i drink normal tea/coffee regularly..
hope this helps..

So I'm not the only one that got hit this weekend
My solution:
Sweat it out under a goose duvet cover with a whisky tea chaser. If it don't cure you...I'll assure you--->you won't feel a thing after this remedy.

I'm just wondering what everyone else does to help get rid of a cold. Hopefully I can get good enough by saturday to go to scott bond at guv
first of all stay AWAY from any sniffables **wink wink**
use Advil cold and Sinus extra strength - clears those nasals - right up! then get a humidifier, aviod fans, aviod dusty areas, and aviod kissing girls with BAD hair!* then you tuck yourself in your cumfy cozy bed and you have a "good rest~" "sy'la' hap'ti'doe!<--spoken in some 'other language"
oh yeah hot steamy (no sex) showers and pull your cheeks away from your face and breathe in - and yes it is DISCUSTIng - but the flem will get outta there and you hork it up! hahahaha Hork - I haven't said that in ages! anyways - hope this helps sick bouy!
Let the Dr. know when youa re feeling bette r- and get some kick ass Meds!**

I drink all kinds of Camomille (spell check?), add a TABLEspoon
of honey, and squeeze fresh lemon to finish.
Old skool home remedy, ALWAYS worx within few days....
Sinus congestion? Advil Cold & Sinus ALWAYS worx!
If all else fails, believe it or not, smoke a joint
toward the end of the day - worx 4 me @ least
