Thanks for the comments.

use threads;
Somehow, I am not able to pass parameters to sub routines using threads->create.
Below are the sample code and errors.

Better.pm 

package Better;

sub saveBetter {
   my ($sbn, $cost, $ur) = @_;

   print "sbn:  $sbn\n";
   print "cost: $cost\n";
   print "url:  $url\n";
   return;
}

1;

test.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings;
use threads;
use Better;

my $sbn = "123489876";
my $lee = "12.89";
my $abc = "abcde";

my @ParamList = ($sbn, $lee, $abc);

my $thr = threads->create(Better::saveBetter, @ParamList);

$thr->join();

Changed code to 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings;
use threads;
use Better;

my $sbn = "123489876";
my $lee = "12.89";
my $abc = "abcde";

my $thr = threads->create(Better::saveBetter, $sbn, $lee, $abc);

$thr->join();

Still got same error.

Any idea?
