By careful management of a TBR you can reduce your expenditure considerably.

Which leaves more money for more books.... which is where the plan sort-of fails, of course. Says the man with an 800+ TBR.
Three books on my "must read now/soon" list dropped last Tuesday, and I had two finished by the end of the week.

But then, I also have a TBR stack sitting at about 1250.
