I have a sore throat.

suck some candy: the sucking will cause more blood to irrigate your throat, which will soften the pain.
Not dangerous, not expensive but buy sugarless candy ( for your teeth)

well if its not too bad than try just swooshing it arround in ur mouth and ull get used to it and also don't use too much salt try gargaling it with just alittle bit then start puting more and more in but if that doesn't work just drink water plain

My friend swears by heating whiskey with a little bit of water [not quite to boiling, but close], mixed with honey and the juice from a whole lemon. I've never personally tried that trick, but hot tea with honey and lemon usually helps a little bit.

Tea with honey. Not too hot, not too cold. Throat losengers. Also, there is this tea called throat coat. I'm pretty sure they sell it at any grocery store. Chloraseptic spray should work, too.

You can also gargle with Listerine mouth wash because it has high levels of alcohol. This will kill the foreign germs.

Try drinking herbal tea with lemon and honey. That soothes the throat and helps a lot. :)
