But now that it's over and I need something new to read... after a 2 minute visit to Baen: $60 out; 16 books in.

You are a binge buyer!! I knew there was your type. You can handle it just fine until you actually sneak in for one and then you can't stop until filled with epages. I fall into the emotional ereader. I don't really need it, but it will make me feel better if I buy it now and don't read it for 3 years than if I wait 3 years and have to pay a different price (it will be either more or less, never the same or similar).
Honestly, it's the SALE thing I have going. When I see a book for $1.99 or less, the temptation is pretty bad if it is scifi or mystery/crime/thriller. So, I don't spend a lot per book, but it adds up. I can resist the full price book though, at least until I get to that series where I need the book before reading the others (yes, I'm that kind of person). So, in order to manage that, I've quit 'daily special' type lists or I'm going to top my $150 yearly goal well before I get to the November/December sales.
