Twitter “Earlybird” Offers Free Ticket To Sorcerer’s Apprentice Dan Koelsch, July 15, 2010 Earlier this month, Twitter created a new account named “Earlybird“, which offers exclusive limited time deals, sneak-peeks, and other goodies. Yesterday, the Earlybird sung it’s first song, tweeting out information on how to get a free ticket to Disney’s latest film, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice . Technically, Earlybird just retweeted the promotion from Disney Pictures, but either way, it’s the first deal for Twitter’s new feature. Sorcerer’s Apprentice opened yesterday in theaters, and if you buy a ticket from Fandango.com, you get a second ticket for free when if you the code APPRENTICE. Make sure you hurry, because the deal is only while supplies last (as of the writing of this article, the code still worked). Hopefully we’ll get more promotions like this from Earlybird, which seems to not only do its own deals, but also highlight ones being done by others on the website.
