Thanks, yeah, I was looking at the FindBin module. But I'm just going to dump all the scripts in the same directory and there's a change, albeit small, this location can change. So I wanted that to be dynamic, so I threw this code into my own module: 

our $MyBin;

BEGIN {
    my $file = __FILE__;
    # get the path to the directory of this file using File::Basename

    my $package = __PACKAGE__;
    $package =~ s/::/\//g;

    # chop off the package name from the end of the file path
    $file =~ s/$package\.pm//;

    $MyBin = $file . 'bin';
}

But maybe I'm not understanding FindBin
