Hi F4celess,
You don't need to change the discs at the same time as changing the pads. That would get very expensive! Pads are £30, discs around £300.
Depending on your riding style you'll get between 5K and 10K out of a set of front pads, while I've just changed my front discs at 50K.
It is true that they bed in together, but that just means that it'll take a few miles for new pads to become fully efficient whist their wear beds in to match the disc.
