Sounds like a job for the new cookie jar feature...

curl -c cky_jar URL1
curl -c cky_jar URL2
curl -c cky_jar URL3

The -b option that takes a file with cookies can (currently) only be
used
once on the command line, so if you don't wanna concatenate both files
into a
third using:

$ cat file1 file2 > file3
$ curl -b file3 [URL]

You also have the option to tell curl to get the -b file from stdin like
this:

$ cat file1 file2 | curl -b @- [URL]

And to add your own custom cookie, that is added with "-b
variable=contents"
or if you wanna set several cookies "-b var1=cont1;var2=cont2;".
