I was going to say something to this effect. That buying ahead usually gives you access to more sales and discounts.
But then I thought, hmmm, I've bought quite a few books using sales and discounts. And many of them are still in my TBR pile. A sale book sitting in my TBR pile is technically a loss, and not a savings - until I actually read it.
I didn't think I'd be able to debate my way out of that hole I dug for myself, so I decided not to mention the benefit of sale prices when buying ahead. Too many excellent debaters on this forum that would have caught me on that one!
