I got a soy-milk maker on ebay for almost half price. I got is at $84.00 instead of $150 :)
I'll probably receive it next week since it is coming from Vancouver.
Today I went to the Asian grocery store and bought soy beans. $1.79 for a 900g bag, it is very cheap! Cheaper than the health store I went to last week (it was $3.00).
Can't wait to start making my own milk, tofu and soy yogurt :)

Soy-milk maker???
I'm thinking about buying a soy-milk maker. It is pretty expensive ($150), but it may be a good investment.
I would make my own milk, knowing exactly what's in it, for about $0.60 a liter, which is very cheap comparing to $3.50 for store bought soy milk.
I could even make tofu and yogurt with it. I already make my own yogurts with cow milk. I make 10 yogurts with a liter of milk. At $1.50 a liter of cow milk, a home made yogurt cost me $0.15.
With home-made soy-milk, a yogurt would cost me $0.06! :P
I read Skinny Bitch this week and decided to eat less dairy products (I got scared with all those hormones and antibiotics stories :P).
So the soy-milk maker is probably a good idea, but I'll keep on searching for a cheaper one on the internet.
