Directory specific 404

| I have a website that offers time bound promotions...ie: 10% off all
books, gifts, etc. ... at any one time there might be 2-30 items that
are going to expire. Instead of going through the handful of
directories and changing the pages to say the offer has expired, i
would just like to delete the page and have a 404 page say "Sorry the
offer you seek is expired, please wait while i redirect you....)
The challenge is that i dont want ONE generic 404 saying ("The offer is
expired") ...i would like to have the ability to offer item/directory
specific 404s.
ie:
http://www.site.com/ ----> 404.html ("Fle not found)
http://www.site.com/books/ ----> 404_books.html ("The book offer has
expired...)
http://www.site.com/food/ ----> 404_food.html ("The food offer has
expired...)
Is this possible ... directory specific 404s?
Any help is appreciated. thx.

Read up on the ErrorDocument directive. Note context includes directory.
Syntax: ErrorDocument error-code document
Context: server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess
