Milwaukee, WI September 2, 2008 -- BUYSEASONS' parent company, Liberty Media Corporation successfully completed the acquisition of Celebrate Express today. Celebrate Express will now be combined with BUYSEASONS, Inc.

"This is a great day for our employees, our vendors and our customers," commented Jalem Getz, BUYSEASONS' CEO.
