Wool Sock Bulk Buy!
In this episode of “wtf is Kas doing this week?” we have... Buying a shit ton of wool blend socks. These socks typically retail from $4 a pair (in bulk on Amazon) to $12/pair when purchased individually. Socks are something that are ALWAYS needed, even more so in winter when things take forever to dry and trench foot is around the corner. Using my superpowers of sourcing for good, I’ve found a wholesale distributor, and between leveraging my resale permit, buying in bulk, and using a new account discount code, I’m able to get 144 pairs for $190.47, including shipping. That works out to $1.32 a pair for wool/cotton blend thermal socks. For locals, I’ve posted details in HOCS and SQE for transparency. If you are part of a mutual aid organization or do outreach with your local unhoused neighbors (in Seattle area) and would like to participate, let me know. We’ve got some funding to cover folks who can’t afford to purchase. If you’d like to contribute to the sock fund, please venmo @kulispel and leave “socks” in the note. I can be reached at [email protected] for sock requests and any other inquiries. <3 As of right now we’ve received or have been pledged around $148. Anything over the $190 goal will go towards a second unit (another 144 pairs), because the more socks, the better!
