Like this quote from Dumbledore, when he looks in the mirror that shows your deepest desire:

"What do you see when you look in the mirror?"

"I? I see myself holding a pair of thick, woolen socks."

"One can never have enough socks. Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn't get a single pair. People will insist on giving me books."

The older I get, the more I appreciate receiving nice socks as gifts.

I just buy 20 pack (or more) of black ones every few years.
