For me, it's easier to list the ones that exceed $6.99: 5 in the last three years. (A couple of eARCs and two James Andrus mysteries.)

Versus 36 webscriptions (6 books-per) and 6 special Baen intro bundles; 18 Hyperion classic SF compilations at Amazon ($0.99 to $1.99). A couple hundred freebies (mostly for my mother) and a few dozen $2.99 to 6.99 scattered titles at Amazon and Fictionwise.

I can safely say 98% of my purchases over the past three years have been sub-$7.

I don't much discriminate on pricing per se, but boycotting all Price-Fix Six content simplifies the decision process.
