Someone did a post a few months ago that did the math on this.
There definitely comes a point where it makes sense to not always pay for 3 donuts. For example, if you hit 2 donuts on the first try, maybe you pay $50,000 and get 3. But you might pay $100,000. So that extra donut really costs $75,000 on average. It depends on your multiplier, but there definitely comes a point where that's not a good idea any more. I need to buy just over 10 KEMs for a donut box. Once you account for selling back the KEMs, that comes out to about $110,000 per box, or $55,000 per donut (more or less...technically my dollars per donut is much harder to calculate than that). So, it makes sense for me not to spend $75,000 on the donut.
Now, if I hit one donut on the first try, it still makes sense for me to pay, but I will soon be at a point where it won't make sense to pay if I hit one, and then two on the next try. One day, maybe, it won't make sense for me to pay for more donuts at all.
