I seldom use bookmarks for browsing/reading things, but they are very useful for opening groups of related pages at once (since modern browsers can open a folder of bookmarks in one operation).

E.g., I select Bookmarks → Banking → Open in Tabs and a tab opens for each of my bank accounts and credit card accounts. (Especially handy because such sites tend to be slow.)

Autocomplete is a very useful UI for going to a single site, and I personally never use bookmarks for that, but I often use them to open collections of pages together at once.
