Dividing new purchases

In the interest of saving money, does anybody here ever divide newly purchased perennials before planting? Or is this a bad idea for the health of all the new divisions?

If yes, are there any rules of thumb I should follow (for example, not dividing something that's currently in bloom, or pruning blooms at division time)?

Specifically what I'm considering now is dividing a Fanal's Astilbe I bought today.

Thanks,
Kim
