2. Finding it very difficult to get specific information from Olay.com or asds.net. This blog is the first thing that comes up with ANY information. I searched the official sites noted in the Olay ad and got NOWHERE! Plus, I think the ad is somewhat misleading in that it is not clear that it's a "buy one get one" proposition. I hope others have better luck finding specific information from the sponsors. Otherwise, this looks like a "goodwill" initiative gone bad - poorly managed, not user friendly at all. Maybe my experience is unique, but I'm inclined to think others are having similar results.

3. In the above post:

Click on the Olay link at the end of the post

You will be taken to a webpage with a drop down menu of states.

Select your state.

You will be given a list of dermatologists in your area offering free screening.

To my understanding, this is a free service for both you and the friend you bring.
