I did that very thing and it's working out nicely. Bought a big box of bulk socks. I haven't even opened half the pairs after two years. And that was the only mistake: I should have opened all of them and dumped them into a FIFO sock drawer. As it is now, I'll open a new 6-pack and they will be new-level black while the older pairs have faded to an off-black. And then you're back to matching pairs of dark black vs light black. I think I got them from www.bargain-bulk-sock-sales.com. Someone here mentioned them (don't remember if they endorsed or merely named) in a previous sock thread.
