I’m a big fan of all things Disney and one of my favorite places to vacation is at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It looks like Disney has some great offers coming up in 2009 that I thought I’d pass along to our readers. Below are full details of these offers, along with a promo video.

Celebration Vacation 2009

The first cool offering is the “Celebration Vacation,” where in 2009, if you visit the World Disney World Resort in Orlando or the Disneyland Resort in California on your exact birthday, you get entry into one of the theme parks for free! On your birthday, present a valid ID that includes proof of birth date and gain entry to that particular park (so, if you go to the Magic Kingdom, you gain entrance there). Guests who already hold a valid multi-day ticket that they’ll use on their birthday may choose from other birthday treats instead. To register your birthday and find out more details, visit www.disneyparks.com.

Walt Disney World Vacation Package Savings in 2009 – Buy 4 Nights and Get 3 Nights Free

Another offer for select dates in 2009 is a discounted vacation package where guests can purchase a 4-night stay at Disney World in Orlando and get 3 nights for free, which includes theme park tickets (see full list of dates, prices, and details here below).

Borders Is ‘Twilight’ Central this Season with Vampire Inspired Books, CDs, Calendars, Gifts, Free In-Store Parties, Exclusive Online Content, Podcast and More!

Vampire craze spawned by blockbuster Stephenie Meyer book series and upcoming Summit Entertainment feature film “Twilight” inspires wide range of gift options at all price points for teens and young adults — many exclusive to Borders.

One of Santa’s little elves presides over a sprawling display of gift items that debuts today at Borders stores nationwide. But this is no ordinary elf — instead of a sweet smile, he flashes a sharp set of fangs, signaling that Borders is the place to find gifts for the multitudes of young people today who have become passionate about vampires. It started with bestselling author Stephenie Meyer’s first book “Twilight” about a high school romance between a mortal girl and her teen vampire boyfriend, and now three books in the series later, has blossomed into a craze that will gain even more momentum Nov. 21 when Summit Entertainment releases the highly anticipated feature film “Twilight.” Borders was bitten early by what has been called a “full-blown pop culture phenomenon” and has amassed an incredible selection of gift items — everything from the books to the film soundtrack CD to T-shirts, calendars and even jewelry — in one sweeping display at the front of its stores that is sure to attract shoppers thirsty for gifts at all price points for hard-to-please teens and young adults. Borders, which is one of Summit Entertainment’s primary retail partners for “Twilight,” will even host free in-store parties Nov. 15 at nearly all of its stores nationwide.
