Default How much yardage to buy on speculation?

Just wondered ... for all you folks with such lovely stash supplies -- when you see a great sale, how much do you buy just "for future use" (i.e. no specific project in mind)? I ran into a rare and great sale yesterday but had no idea how much to buy so left it for now, but want to go back and stock up a bit. If I find a fabric that really speaks to me, how much on average should I buy? I don't make full-size bed quilts (or haven't yet) so it would be for some projects like table runners, bed throws, placemats, baby quilts, etc. and I usually like to buy at least three different, but coordinating patterns.
