I bought a big package of generic thread this summer. I think it had three of each color I needed and several others. It cost around $6. So, it was a great deal. I know that I went through three skeins of the first three to four colors... and then it dwindled down. I would get two skeins of the next few colors and only one of brown and black. This, of course, depends on the number of students that you have.
