New Big-end Bolts?

My Haynes manual says that I should renew the bolts on the connecting rod 
big-end.  Although, they are not ultra expensive ($6.95 per for a total of 
$55.60 plus S & H) that seems like a lot of money to spend when I have 
plenty of used bolts.  The eight from the motor  I'm working on and eight 
from the one I took out of the car.

Is this a good expense?  How often do those darned bolts give out anyway?


Thanks.
