Dandruff-vertising makes it all clear

Dandruff ClearWeird, creative, creepy? Sure, but original too. At first you think, okay, this is a woman with dandruff, so that is an interesting ad, but then, you step a little closer, you look a bit closer, and the dandruff is actually made of clear plastic "coupons" (for lack of a better word) you can user to get 10% off the "Clear" shampoo product that the ad is for. Clearly, this ad wants to stick in your mind, knowing where you got this piece of dandruff. It makes me wonder, who is the woman, and does she care that you are taking her dandruff? Some people are really obsessive about that kind of thing. Also, does someone have to go out every week, every day even and replace the "dandruff?" I can hear it now, "okay folks, let's see, Roger, you are on dandruff detail, Marcy, you are on..." Despite the weirdness, this is one of my favorite ads so far this year.
