I like the "one man brake bleeding tool" they sell at Poop Boys and Auto Zoo for less than $10. It's a tube with a one-way valve. Start at the wheel farthest from the booster and work your way forward. On cars with a newer style proportioning valve, the valve will "close" if the master cylinder runs dry (to prevent pumping out all the fluid if there is a leak). Look for a "button" on the valve and reset it before starting.
