My new sock-buying strategy is to pick up a dozen pair in the same style and colour whenever my sock drawer needs replenishing. It greatly reduces the number of unmatched socks. It's a little boring, though.
I tend to do similarly -- buy a bunch the same. Sometimes only 6-9, but same basic strategy. All 9 new-paired went back in the black-sock drawer, and were different generations of plain black sock.
