i had read somewhere that if your birthday lands between the 2fre promo you also get the other park free. is this true? i just called disney and they told me no that i would have to buy a separate ticket but i want to hear from you guys. anyone gone to disney so far with the bd promo and gotten the 2fre promo also? please help!!!!
Yes, but it's not by default.
Last time I was at a ticket booth they asked if we wanted to upgrade (for free) to the 2fer.
If you're a So Cal resident and you're not offered the 2Fer in exchange for your birthday ticket, just let the CM you'd like to make the switch.
It's technically called a "Birthday 2fer"

It's a free upgrade upon proof of residency, but it's an upgrade. Like any other upgrade, it must be requested by the guest. By default, it does not come with the free birthday admission.

Why is everything for So. Cal? How come they don't offer the specials/discounts to Nor Cal residents? I'm sure I would be there as much as some So Cal residents.

maybe its time that people from northern California start writing to Burbank as start giving suggestions for northern Cal park offers. Who knows maybe if they see that enough people are interested and that their hotels and stores might benefit they might even consider it
Probably for the same reason WDW discounts are not offered to residents of Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, etc. They have to draw the line somewhere. The discounts are intended for local residents. NorCal is 420some odd miles away from the SF Bay/Sacto areas. That's not exactly what I'd call local. A 200ish mile radius is more reasonable, and that's about what there is if I've got the zip code locations correct.

thank you all for the reply. i have another question to this if it does include the 2fre do i have to use it that same day?
If my understanding of the 2Fer is correct, then you CAN'T use it on the same day...
From Disneyland.com:
So you can use it within a month at whatever park you didn't go to on your birthday.Admission valid for one day at Disneyland® park and another day at Disney's California Adventure® park, but not for both parks on the same day. Tickets are valid 30 days from first use. First use must occur between 01/06/09 through 06/03/09. Each day of use constitutes one full day of use.
Another question that is related that I have is, if you get this 2fer ticket for your birthday being a So Cal Resident, and you use the 2nd day on a different day because you are required too, on that 2nd day you return to use your 2fer can you upgrade it to an annual pass still? Just wondering because then you would technically start your annual pass expiration date on that 2nd date you go in. Right??? Does that make sense, does anyone have an answer. Thanks.
You can use the "birthday 2fer" to upgrade to an annual pass on your 2nd visit. We actually give you the value of the ticket ($69) towards the AP. BUT... the annual pass gets BACKDATED to the 1st day you used the ticket, in other words, your birthday...
It works this way for ANY multiple day tickets that are upgraded to annual passes. The pass is supposed to be started on the FIRST day of use of the ticket.
That makes sense, thank you for the information.
