    Maybe I'm missing something... but how do you already know what the deals are for the week of 7/20? Aren't the ads weekly?

    Here is another option for the Clean and Clear. Use the $5 off blackhead remover refill pads. You could print 3 of those and get the items. They typically cost about $5.75 a pack. The pads are to be used with a device but I have found you can just we the pads and use them without it.

    Jessica- it's easy to find advance ads online, a google search should turn them up for you :)
