The easiest way to do it using Date::Manip would be to grab the documentation and use something very like example #4 ("The amount of time between two dates.") to determine the difference between the two dates, then use something very like example #5 ("To determine a date a given offset from another.") to apply the calculated offset to other dates.
The most efficient way to do it would likely be to not use Date::Manip, as detailed in the "SHOULD I USE DATE::MANIP" section of the documentation. (Although I can't tell you what would be the more efficient module to use because I tend to value "easy" over "efficient" and would just use Date::Manip despite the author's explanation of why I shouldn't.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
