Default Nuts and bolts in bulk

Well, just about ready to start my scale build but was wondering where everyone is getting their nuts and bolts from? Obviously the hardware store but it seems tedious trying to pick them out for each application. What about bulk packages like you see online? Or are the sets that come with a tlt kit enough to get a good start?
