I didn't read thoroughly through every reply, so sorry if it's already been said, but be sure to check the placement of your
rim strip. If the hole is slightly misaligned and the bare edge of the valve hole in the rim is showing, it's basically an invitation for an inflated tube to puncture. A new tube certainly wouldn't fix that problem for long.
