It's not too hard to key the others alike.
Pull the cylinders out and move a few of the wafers around to get a match. Even if you have to leave a few out, it is cheaper/easier than going to the locksmith or using different keys.

You don't need a bag of extra tumblers. Just swap the ones in the cylinder until they as close as you can get and then grind down any that poke up further than the cylinder.
