The answer is http://www.bargain-bulk-sock-sales.com/ Get a gross of either ankle, high or dress socks. ALL EXACTLY THE SAME. When a sock goes bad, take it out of circulation and grab a new one from the box. I bought a gross in 2004 and I'm about 1/2 of the way through. So at that point it was about $90 for 10 years of socks with no time spent on matching socks. They all match.
