Perhaps it may be worth just getting the socks and overshoes for this winter, see how you get on.
Then you can decided on getting a winter boots in the summer sales in preparation for the next winters, if you didn't find the combination enough to stay warm.

Nail on the head. I live in overshoes on my road bike so am more than comfortable with using them off-road for now. I'm not exactly gonna be carrying a bike up rocky trails...
I totally get the whole cost per wear/investment thing of winter boots, but I've managed to make my current pairs of overshoes last a few years and I don't have £100+ to chuck around at the mo.

Hmm, yeah something like that would be nice, but not quite in line with a sock/overshoe budget eh?
The Pro/Shimano NPU overshoes also look interesting - but I'm a bit wary of the velcro fixing on the bottom. I have (and really rate) the road version of them, though.
