Date - Last Sunday thru Saturday

Hi All,
I have to kick off a script on every Monday to get some data from database for last week (Sunday thru Saturday).

If its Monday (12/12/2005)
Begin date will be Sunday - 12/4/2005
End date will be Saturday - 12/10/2005

The script might not kick off on some Mondays.

So my question is, if I ran a script today (12/9/2005) how do I find the date of last Saturday (end date) and Sunday (begin date) before last.

I trided to use cal.

Thanks
