There's one small publisher I know whose ebooks on Smashwords cost considarably less. Newest book is 7.99 USD on Smashwords and 21.99 USD in print. Another is 5 USD vs. 21.99 USD.
At that reasonable price it's a pleasure to buy a second copy for someone else (and support the small publisher and the authors - and Smashwords, too).
Plus it's totally hassle free - no geo restriction, no DRM, no nothing.
