I haven't saved any money at all. The cost of the ereader, the cost of the ebooks (which are significantly higher than paperbacks), the inability to trade-in or resell ebooks, there hasn't been an aspect of the process that has saved me money.
The benefits: convenience, that's about it.
I can't even reach for secondary "benefits" such as "saved shelfspace" because I keep only a fraction of the books that I read, and the books that I DO keep, are not available in ebook format.
