You can always just keep the back cover of the paperback and throw the rest of the book away so you only have a single copy.
Of course, the least expensive legit method would be the public library.
Thanks for your suggestion though. My TBR list is long enough that I can wait for price declines and sales, and if all else fails, I live 10 minutes walk from a good public library.
