If you read a lot of books you probably have book budget, food budget, other budgets, and entertainment budget. In that order. If you do not read a lot of books you will probably by the new books so back list book availability is not relevant.

I'd almost rather walk barefoot on broken glass than keep track of a budget. Luckily I have managed fine without one.
I honestly can't see most people putting books before essentials budget wise though. There is always the library and/or second hand. I have known those whose first monetary priorities are sex and/or booze, but I can't see them as budgeting types saving up to buy a kindle.
