a spoon full of suger, helps me get a rid of em every time. I learned this method from a bartender and she said it has always helped her, and any other person that has asked her.

giving someone a fright (and it has to be sudden-wait til everythings quiet,then go Dah,or bah,or just a noise that starts with a d or a b or a t,for it to be effective),do it sudden,sharp and loud.but also be aware before you do it that they havent got any type of heart conditions!although a bit of a fright, they say can be good for you too.i did this to my wife when i first met her.She hated me for about 5 mins then realised she hadnt hiccoughed for that long.Boy was she happy- wow-wow-wow!!!,if u no wot i mean.

TO STOP HICKUPS: Put water into your mouth (DO NOT SWALLOW-YET),EXHALE THROUGH YOUR NOSE COMPLETELY, PLACE YOUR THUMBS AND FORE FINGERS TO COVER YOUR EARS AND CLOSE YOUR NOSE. Then, swallow the water. The action of NOT swallwing air causes the hickups to subside and go away. (IF 1ST TIME DOES NOT WORK, DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN !!!) THIS TIME -CLOSE YOUR EYES TOO-. WORKS FOR ME EVERY TIME !!! RON.

Don’t ask me why, but my grandpa used to tell me to swallow a spoonful of sugar when I got the hiccups. I never found out if it worked – by the time I got around to it – they were gone.

I later read it has something to do with triggering your taste buds. I think I prefer the honey suggestion, but you might not always have that in the house.”

I was taught to say verbally “Grapefruit” to stop hiccups. If you can’t say it out loud, just mouth the words. I swear, it works!
