Just wait for one of the many coupon code sales at reebok.com and buy the Reebok Floatride Energy. Just got a pair for $55 and the foam seems like it'll last awhile. Or, versions 1-2 are on amazon in the $45-75 range depending on size and color.

Honestly got about 1600 on a pair of infinity reacts ending their lifespan earlier this year. Wore them until the wire began to be exposed and dig at my ankle. Besides that they were doing strong. Thanks for the other responses though. Still no one really answered would buying these lesser quality shows potentially have a significant impact on my chance of injury?
I would not go the cheap and plentiful route. The shoes will quickly feel like crap and probably fall apart easily as well. You will barely enjoy running in them until they feel insufferable.
Focus on getting mileage hauler shoes that are last year's model on sale. I have good luck with shoes that have TPU midsoles, like the Adidas Boost or Saucony Everrun (not sure about the new PWRRUN+). The midsoles often last longer than the upper or outsole. For example if I spent $300 on three pairs of on sale mileage hauler shoes, I can get like 1800 miles out of those three pairs. Maybe I could get get 4 or 5 pairs of cheaper shoes for $300, but they might feel dead after 300-400 miles. It will take more pairs and perhaps more money of the cheap shoes to meet the same mileage goal.
Eastbay, Running Warehouse etc are your friends.
"Old" models (e.g. getting Version 11 instead of Version 12 of a given shoe) are usually very discounted.

Go on EBAY and make offers on shoes or make bids. Many sellers are eager to move shoes and are willing to take less than the listing price.
If not buying online ask the store clerk for a discount if you buy 2 pairs. Worked for me every time.
You all should look at Atreyu. The subscription plan puts the shoes at $55. They are on a two month cycle, so a little over the OPs $300 a year, but every two months you get a fresh pair. Additionally you can skip a delivery once a year and that would bring you under the $300.
I am 5'8" 135 lbs and I get around 350-400 miles in each pair before sending them off to pasture..
