The acne solution that is known to work 100% is pro-active! I'm not sure if it's cheap or not but it'll be worth it.
An easier way is drink lots of water and wash your face EVERY day!

Here are some REALLY good, and very inexpensive ways to treat most acne at home. Try each method (unless you’re allergic to the ingredients) until you find one that works best for you. Good luck =) BTW, I know some of these may sound bizarre but try them…what have you got to lose other than the acne!!
1. Put toothpaste on your acne before going to bed. (Make sure it is paste not gel). It should reduce the swelling of acne noticeably.
2. Dab egg whites on your acne and leave on for 20 minutes or overnight. It’s supposed to pull the infection out of the blemish.
3. Wash acne infected areas twice a day with warm salt water. This reduces oils in the skin and helps to dry the acne up without further agitation.
4. Use ice on acne before going to bed. This works best on pimples that have not yet formed a head. It reduces swelling and helps to prevent scarring.
5. Wash and dab acne with cotton balls that have been soaked in vinegar. Let dry; do not wash off immediately.
6. Place strawberries leaves over your acne and the alkalinity will help to reduce the swelling.

If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.
Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

I'm not sure if you can find it "cheap." But tea tree oil is really great for it. You can get it at The Body Shop and sometimes I've seen it at Wal-Mart. It's natural so it's not likely to jack up your skin. If you get straight Tea Tree Oil just put a dab on a q-tip and rub it on the spots of breakout you have. Good luck! Oh...and don't pick.
Also, check out homeopathy & acne...

I wouldn't waste my time buying special products. Just wet a towel with warm (not hot) water and use soap. Warm water will open your pores and make them easier to clean. If you use hot water, it will close them. Do this twice a day and especially before you go to bed.
I went to the dermatologist and got Acutane. It's a weird experience but after a few months, your acne will be greatly decreased.

Along with the Walmart cream.

Flush UR system with plenty of water, everyday drink at least 1 1/2 liters of fresh water.

Wash the area with mild soap and rinse real well at least 2 times a day.

Drink a lot of water, avoid McSHITdonalds, exercise, and visit curezone.com, they rawk! Don't waste your time on visiting a dermatologist, cause they will only prescribe antibiotics or another medication to only treat your skin, not the root of why u have acne.

Pro Active works really well.. i've been using it for like 2 weeks and my skin is clearing up and evening out..
its different prices for how many different kinds you get... like the cleanser, toner, lotion, mask... etc.... but its around 40$ a month
if you think its too expensive.. remember "you get what you pay for"
