Consider the snow tires can "go bad" just from shelf lifespan, so don't be TOO paranoid about wearing them out.
Also, if you have summer tires (as opposed to 4-season) then they get kinda bad just from temperature. You don't need snow for summer tires to become inappropriate.
Still, I've swapped more than once per season. Couple times when there's a freak early snow, I scramble to install the snows (20 minutes per car) sometimes in the morning before driving to work. Then it gets back to normal autumn weather so I take them back off.
Not EVERY time I go skiing. But if the snows are mounted on their own rims, it becomes VERY easy to swap.
