Yea I sometimes start using scrolls in demon halls, but that's a bit late sometimes.
If you got off too long, it might mean burning through your other resources faster until you do.
Something that I also do sometimes is throw extra items down pits so I can pick them back up on the next level or maybe eventually sell them.
Everything from level 1 to the Imp's store is usually picked clean. Although, once you commit to upgrading an item it becomes less useful to haul things.
A neat trick I got from someone else here is to pile a bunch of your unidentified stuff and throw a bomb at it. Upgraded items will be OK, but lvl 0 items will be destroyed.
Now it may or may not be cursed, but now you know they're at least +1, which has been more helpful than I initially thought it would be.
Kinda saves on id and remove curse scrolls in a roundabout way, because you only bother with the better gear.
Some curses are gagne breaking, others aren't as bad, and if it's an item you're going to dump upgrade scrolls into anyway there's no need to uncurse them, the upgrades will eventually wipe the curse.
Also... if your start tossing stuff down... make sure you at least pick it back up once, even if you don't want it anymore.
Tossed items can land atop other items and kinda hide them. Sucks to miss a key, upgrade, potion, etc because it's underneath some junk you tossed.
If you tossed it and don't want it anymore, at least pick it back up momentarily to confirm there's nothing underneath.

If you're gonna dump a bunch of scrolls in it, you're pretty much guaranteed to uncurse.
