Go to a Scrapbooking shop
 
As a Scrapper I have bought a bottle of something that is call Glue Off or sometning like that. It removes goofs for scrappers. I imagine some craft shops sell it also. I do know that Pnut butter will take off the residual stickiness.

I use OOPS! Comes in a squirt can at Ace hardware. It is great to have around to remove the sticky residue from any label you have to remove - CD Jewel cases, book jackets, glasses, new credit cards, anything!!

If the sticker / label to remove tears, just pour a little on and wait 10-15 seconds and they scrape it off with your thumbnail.

I would not be without a small can of it in the house.

2) Goo Gone, available at Walmart, Home Depot, etc. Spray on. Wait a minute or so. Wipe off.

3) JD or glass or red wine to celebrate how easy it was!
Goo be Gone is great stuff!!!!!!!! Excellent suggestion as we've used it many times on various sticky issues.

Just bought a large bottle of goo gone a few months ago. Works great. If it has been removed from the shelf I have enough to last my lifetime!!

Heat with hair dryer, tease an edge up with a knife, peel off, then spray the leftover glue with CRC Brakleen and wipe with paper towels.

Brakleen is available at Walmart, it's cheap, and will remove all kinds of grease, goo & crud off stuff.

It's in the automotive section and don't get it in your eyes. Trust me on this.

The hair dryer bit is also neat for removing price tags off Christmas presents.
