In the past I’ve bought multipacks of Planet X thickies, and a couple of times I’ve had a multipack of Ulvangs from eBay (I think they were seconds, but they were fine), neither of which are a current option.

Where else sells decent value, black, merino socks? All I can seem to find is thick/long hiking ones, which is not really what I’m after.

everyday as in “for going to work ‘n’shit ” ?

M&S used to do ’em

Woolie Boolies – very durable too

M&S – it’s the only thing I still buy there

WhaT? going into an actual M&S shop this near Christmas? Get em online surely?
