Personally, I think anyone looking to ebooks primarily as a way to save money is bound to be disappointed, especially if you mostly read books from mainstream publishers. If that's the case, you may be better off looking for bargains on the print editions.
Both print and ebooks have their own advantages, and every reader should go with the choice where the advantages best match their needs. While I understand the benefits of owning a physical item (I collect print myself) I just find the greater readability of ebooks outweigh those benefits when it comes to my own use.
