Were the tests digital? I would be cautiously optimistic, and definitely poas some more. How many dpo are you?

From my experience the clearblue brand tests don't have a great reputation of being sensitive (the OPK or the HPT), more than likely your levels of HCG weren't at their sensitivity point. Here's a link to a list of all the brands and their sensitivities (You can see that most likely your store brand was more sensitive) It says clearblue digital's sensitivity ranges from 25-50, so who knows. Also have you tried a very sensitive test such as First Response or a dip strip from a website? Those are known to catch pregnancy the earliest:
